Maybe it seems more of an issue because your coming clean about it in public, but I think (with absolutely no credentials to do so, but, whatever!) that you're experiencing exactly the same thoughts/feelings that most people do when they're torn between their creative pursuits and everyday MUNDANITY! I want to say "don't be so hard on yourself", but I know you're not really, as you're taking brave steps like with the PoNaNaMiDoReMiSoFaWrWhatsit! And, you are inspiring me to be more proactive and to write too, not that I have similar novelistic (yes, it is a word, I just made it up) desires, just the need to remove useless information from my brain and store it somewhere. So, please go easy on yourself and stop reading my crap comments and go write some more! x (like I said, be prepared for more comments!)
