Chris said to me last night “If it wasn’t hard, you wouldn’t want to do it. You’d just complain that you were bored.”
Boyfriends can be so annoying when they are right.
The fact is, I had a disappointment yesterday. I have been working to set up a writing group, a class that I would lead and charge money for. Not a lot of money, but I wanted to get a group of people that were more dedicated. My thought is, if people have to pay for something they will value it more.
So I wanted to get a group of people dedicated to writing. I also believe that I would be a good leader and teacher of such a group.
I made reserved a community room and put up flyers. I prepared handouts and guidelines for the students. I had a lesson plan and extra pens.
I got to the facility early and waited. I had no idea how many people would come!
No one came.
I choose to believe that I need to learn how to advertise the group better. In fact, I have a lot to learn about promotion and advertising. My book needs a lot of that too.
I don’t know much about it. I will have to learn.
OK, So you are not the first to have a conference (class) bomb the first try out! Keep your chin up and try try again. I love your humor and plan to buy your book……SOOOOO keep on keepin on!

Success and failure doesn’t much matter imho. You’re trying. That’s what matters.
