Because that's what it comes down to, doesn't it? I have drafts all over the house because I try to catch a moment while hubby is watching baseball to revise.

If so, are Wisdom Tiaras for sale? I need one!<br /><br />I hate when the shoe is on the other foot because, really, shoes aren't like gloves or socks. People will stare when you wear your shoes wrong. I know this from experience. And also, it's hard and often requires selflessness.<br />But it's a good reminder. I think writers especially have a tendency to focus on their desire for support and forget that other people need it too sometimes. I know I'm 100% guilty of this.Sarah Wyliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13576639307836794270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5328014776473730528.post-7344368238193632592009-08-14T18:37:32.961-04:002009-08-14T18:37:32.961-04:00Sounds like me.

I think as the "writers" in the family, we can get sucked into thinking we're the ones who deserve all of the patience and support in the world while we ignore our family and chores, obsessing over our goals.<br /><br />Well, dammit, the husbands should get that, too. Shouldn't their dreams justify as much sacrifice on our part? The only thing is, I enjoy being selfish, we all do, so I think it's a conscious, sometimes difficult choice to reciprocate. <br /><br />I've been learning that this week helping my husband with his crazy art form, which involves me making a LOT of plaster molds of his face. It's time consuming, and creepy, but then again, so is my writing! <br /><br />We finally decided that we are both alternately Dr. Frankenstein and Igor, and that is okay. <br /><br />Everyone needs an Igor to support them, and everyone deserves to be Frankenstein once in awhile when they are passionate about their goals.<br /><br />Word verification: glueyspooRebecca Knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15214077952378770753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5328014776473730528.post-44775109749964048132009-08-14T13:23:55.214-04:002009-08-14T13:23:55.214-04:00Ah man, now I'm the wise, boring, no fun, tiar...Ah man, now I'm the wise, boring, no fun, tiara-wearing sister.
