For my first post in an ACTUAL blog/news website, I thought I’d just get over the fear that is the hump of actually submitting something… anything! so I just wrote a cute and witty post based on something my mother always said about earthquakes: that’s just the earth “rearranging” itself. It’s cute when she says it, I hope it came out cute when I passed on her wisdom to hundreds (or tens?… or… a handful?) of readers 🙂
Mother Earth and Disastrous Wedgies
I do have to say that it feels strange to be “edited.” The original writing was not much different than what was actually published, but for someone like me, who regards rejection as the ultimate slap in the face, it unavoidably feels like every sentence that got changed was “rejected” somehow. I guess this will be good therapy for my writer ego. After all, I am doing this to learn how to improve my writing. Any personal growth that comes from this experience will be a nice bonus!
Oh, and as for my last name and clear picture now being out there in the open… well… I guess… I have to get over it.
Enjoy and stay tuned for more 🙂 Oh, and COMMENT the heck out of the article! (not here, silly, on the dailygetup website! It shows them that you care 🙂 )
