I want to write as well .. some day .. Other than a desire to be a writer, I like the challenge of creating a work that can hold the audience's interest from start to end.Athirahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03366654538383603004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7736127069847988207.post-61933847772887622772010-07-25T18:41:38.220-05:002010-07-25T18:41:38.220-05:00I'm cheering you on as you emerge from your co...I'm cheering you on as you emerge from your cocoon and spread your creative wings. I have done something similar these last few years as I've traveled and experienced new things in my life.Kathleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01739982274914536036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7736127069847988207.post-58074338267512473552010-07-23T17:56:26.718-05:002010-07-23T17:56:26.718-05:00Molly, I am in complete agreement with Sandy. In f...Molly, I am in complete agreement with Sandy. In fact, I was thinking the same thing as I was reading your post. Writing a blog is WRITING. You are writing something nearly every day. Your blog posts are very creative and your written words are put together beautifully. <br /><br />Guess what - you left the cocoon a long time ago. You are a full fledged writer. I guess what you are looking for now is something else to write. <br /><br />Just because we don't get paid for our blogs, doesn't mean we aren't writers. Add up all the posts and comments you write every day as well as the lesson plans you write. See how many words that makes. You are there. It's time for the butterfly to soar.Margothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07422981969760935118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7736127069847988207.post-36942683950395728192010-07-23T16:17:56.174-05:002010-07-23T16:17:56.174-05:00I'm just going to say this.

Something creative for sure (I'm not a writer!), and something just for me. If you look at your life, big picture, wouldn't blogging be one for you too? I don't think you can blog in a cocoon, so maybe you have been flying and not even known it!Sandy Nawrothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00564390728106776030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7736127069847988207.post-32155436091782341402010-07-22T18:32:49.483-05:002010-07-22T18:32:49.483-05:00I might give this a try at some point ... but I...I might give this a try at some point ... but I'm swamped right now so it won't be soon!<br /><br />And I love your butterfly analogy.
