Lonely Writer
I don't know if anyone else feels the way I do, but sometimes it is lonely being a writer. People can try to understand my problems or the things I get excited about, but they don't really understand. You can tell that they are just trying to be kind. Unfortunately, it is somewhat rare for me to find another writer, who'll get just as excited as I do. For those few who understand, I thank you.

I understand completely. None of my current friends get as excited or as interested as I do. I have so much passion and so many questions but no one to turn to. Writing forums never truly put a lot of care into the beginning authors. So a connection isn't made with anyone. At least in my experience. That's why I'm so glad I stumbled across your page. :)
ReplyDeleteI have come to realize, though, that loneliness comes with the territory. You can have a thousand great "writer" friends but once you get down to the actual writing, you have to journey through your heart and soul completely on your own.
I could not have said it better myself :)
