Sam (Rescue Dog Mom, Writer, Hugger)’s comments from the Navigating Indieworld Discussing All Things Indie group.

I consider myself lucky to have a vivid imagination and time to write stories and poems, except when my health issues halt my ability to write or type.

My main issue is I don't have the confidence to publish a novel. I've lacked self-confidence all my life and have become worse through the years. I've published articles, short stories, and poems on Medium, but that's different.

I'm currently editing and re-writing my novels but fear publishing them. The voice in my head tells me my writing is crap, every story has already been told, mine won't sell, and if it does I'll receive only poor reviews.

I began writing short stories and poems when I was a kid and truly enjoy the creative process. It's the publishing part that frightens me. It's something I hope to overcome when the time comes. Sorry for rambling. Hugs to All.

I agree with Theodore and Carole and prefer the 2nd cover. Good luck!

Hi Everyone!
I hope you all had a wonderful holiday season! I also hope that this year will be much better than last year. Wishing everyone the best of health, happiness, and success in whatever you do. Huge Hugs!!

Thank you, Dale. Hugs

Oops. Thanks for the info and correction, Carro.

Anna, please forgive my lack of knowledge. You can change covers without having to buy a new ISBN? Thank you. Hugs.

I'm with Anna, I also like the moon, so I'm partial to the cover on the right. Plus I like the humorous sneaky positions/stances of the man and woman. It made me giggle. Thank you. Good luck. Hugs!

Awesome, Dale! So happy for you! Hugs!!

Took me two weeks to put this together... still weak but working on it. Hugs

I managed to clap for you, Dale. At last!"

Anna, this happens to me frequently and I have to remind myself to check this thread. Hugs
