Fantastic post and just what I needed to read today! THIS is why I don’t tell people about my books. THIS is why when a new acquaintance asks what I do for a living, I tell them about my part time accounting job instead of my writing career into which I’ve poured my heart and soul. THIS is why I haven’t contacted local book stores and libraries. I’ve been around the indie block enough to know about “the look.”
Following a dream is an accomplishment. Thank you for the reminder.
Thanks for sharing this! I know exactly what you mean!

YAY!!! Power to the people! You go Tricia! You ARE a writer, same as any other. It’s time this tired snobbery was laid to rest. 🙂 xxx
