Darnit, why (with the exception of my parents and sister) do I only get complimented on my attitude online? All my friends just keep telling me to tone it down (translation: start doubting myself), because there is only a small chance (translation: no way in hell! You're too normal for that, just like the rest of us!) this crazy scheme of mine will work, and I'll fall flat on my face.
Maybe I need better friends... I'm all for being realistic and showing a little humility (rather than sending out a three line summary of my novel and expecting hordes of young, male and ridiculously handsome publishers to fight to the death over who gets to sign me on as their author), but just assuming things won't work out... or not even trying... that is just not the way I roll.
