Tues, Apr 21


Reflection
When it comes to my writing I have trouble accepting less than perfection (which I’ll never be able to attain) so what I do is delete and rewrite until I either I break down from exhaustion or the deadline approaches. When it came down to the final hour, two pictures I uploaded text wouldn’t appear. I worked for two hours trying to fix this one problem and reuploadded the whole pdf  two different ways and it still didn’t work. Instead of freaking out like I usually would’ve I just let it go, neither pages of text were vitally important to the story and I actually prefer one of the pages blank. I learned that once you’ve done everything you could do, it’s ok to let go and focus your energy on other issues.
   The other major problem was that I couldn’t actually finish publishing my book at school, the government wanted my tax information and since I don’t have my social memorized I had to wait till I got home to finish it. I even called Createaspace up, explaining and they said it was mandatory. Regardless I went to Coldstone to celebrate and ignoring the fact that my Nana implied that if I kept eating ice cream I wouldn’t have friends, my success tasted sweet.
