Writing and Publishing

I've been writing every day for a very long time.

I have not been publishing every day.

In some ways I'm glad.  A lot of what I've written has been repetitive drivel about my feelings or various challenges I'm facing and a lot of it has been dredging up my past and resolving issues that in some ways nothing can be done about.  I'm glad I haven't been drawing a lot of attention to these things that I feel are better dealt with privately.

That said, I appreciate when someone is laying it all out there for others and it can make them stronger.  Or, it can make them a target for trolls and since I've already been shut down so long, it's fair to say I'm going to be stepping more wisely as a result of writing personal stuff in a personal journal versus pouring it out into the world for public feedback.

Working as an editor I've seen the product of my labours support someone else's progress and a known entity and that's totally okay with me.  I like the people I work with and my purpose is to strengthen their work.  It's completely in keeping with how I see myself.

Moving right along.  I see the door.  I'm stepping through.  It should be fun.
