After all, what's more immediate: the critique of a friend on a story you want to submit in a few weeks OR the critique of thirty little faces every minute for six hours a day?<BR/><BR/>As you said, keep it in perspective. Eye on the Prize and all that. Some days we're better at balancing than others. Just keep at it and give yourself a break. If you can't give yourself a break, just blog it and we'll tell you how wonderful you are and how we believe in you and know you can do it. If the sugary stuff doesn't work, we'll kick your ass. Just let us know. I'm always ready to oblige with a good ass kicking! (Of course, none of my other friends can kickbox. Hmmm. Maybe I should rethink the ass kicking offer......)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00609838189813266635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12323728.post-72516800853344312902008-01-24T22:39:00.000-06:002008-01-24T22:39:00.000-06:00Oh, thanks, Cat!

Nothing like a stressful day job to distract you from writing, but you've got a great attitude! <BR/><BR/>And remember, I owe you big time if you want some critique help.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05663703767093923242noreply@blogger.com
