I pulled a couple out, and they were not as bad as I thought they were. I'm thinking I'll start a pen name for those probably, lol. Less embarrassment in case they do turn out to be as bad as I first thought.N.M.

Apparently "that old china" we had used for years (without any consideration or cautiousness) was very valuable... Oops? :D Well, things are made to be used!<br /><br />I have a few stories that I've lovingly put in a box not to be opened but I must say that I can always find something to cherish in everything I've written.

The novel I just revised (for the umpteenth time) was my first novel... but it's salvageable, or I wouldn't be working on it ten years after its first draft. <br /><br />Sometimes old short stories--or even short poems--can turn into something golden. I look forward to finding out what you discover as you forage!Dr. Cheryl Carvajalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15323455180953109460noreply@blogger.com
