The fear of writing the wrong first word…yes, the very first word…fearing that it will be the wrong word that the judges won’t like has held me back from entering writing competitions in the past. I’m not writing to enter the contest. I’m writing to win. So, do I need to change my perspective? Or simply, do I need to write to match my high expectations and potential?
Well, either way, it’s 6 a.m. on a Sunday and I’m up and writing.
Is this the joy that comes in the morning?
