I'm so glad you read a little from your book! I always enjoy hearing writers reading what they created! Thank you! This was very inspiring! I may need to do a live!

At 21:15 I am hearing someone who says they are not a writer talk about what it is like when she writes. Maybe she thinks she needs to write full-time to be considered a writer? But to me writers are those who write. I am a potter simply because I make pots. I just happen to also work at a big paper factory. I feel the same way making pots as you describe at this point in your video. I do not need anyone to give me permission to call myself a potter. I qualify myself through the very act of making pots. My wife is not all that enthusiastic about my pots. However, I do not need her opinion or permission to qualify as a "real potter". I just need to create pots. Nice job!

Thank you, Alford! I don’t feel good enough at the writing craft itself, or motivated enough to call myself a writer. I never really wanted this. Some people have dreamed all their lives to be writers. Or maybe I’m just a coward.🤷‍♀️

Writers write…You are a writer!!! I bought and read your book! Stop! Just say it!! 🥰 I was laughing some because to me, I was watching a video of a writer making a video about how she is not a writer. It would be like seeing one running, saying they are not a runner. Tell yourself, then, everyone you know.
