applying for the first time

for someone who had dreamed of becoming a writer, it really is a bit embarrasing that I am only now sending in anything to be considered for publication - now, at age 36.

well anyway,
I've read of course - I need to be prepared for rejection - even J K rowling got rejected over and over again - she perservered.

my problem of course is, I don't believe enough in the quality of my work.
but its okay

first pat on back - I wrote for 30 days, almost.

second pat on back - I'm actually sending stuff for a competition at last

third pat will come with some rejection I guess - maybe a paltry acceptance too, who knows. but a response is a response - a validation of me being brave enough to try, so the third pat, regardless of the response.
