Horray!!!I’m celebrating the confidence to release this beautiful short story I’ve loved for years but which I was too afraid to release before.
I hoped to find a magazine to publish it, but it’s a wee thing, only 2 pages.
Lately, I’ve been thinking the real problem is that I didn’t think people would accept this story about the lovely Taylor.
I mentioned this a little bit yesterday in my movie about 4 steps to confidently declare yourself a writer.
Truth is, it’s a romantic piece about a lady, and at the heart of fearing other people’s reaction–I think I didn’t accept the fact that I wrote this. I didn’t want to think about if that mean I was a little bisexual or what.
Do you ever write something from the heart and then fear what it will say about you?
Frankly, at this point, I have decided not to care how people will interpret my story. I’ve decided not to overanalyze it either–it’s art. Women have been the focal point of art since forever.
The whole point of writing stories, for me, is to explore other worlds.
Some people assume all writers just “write what they know” but sometimes they make things up.
Finally, as a wise man named Jerry Seinfeld often said, “Not that there’s anything wrong with that….”
Who cares?
Check out why I love this story, and why I thought it might be a little risque. If I had to put a rating on it (and wattpad wanted me to) I’d say it is PG 13.

That was a sweet story. 🙂
Re: “I didn’t want to think about if that mean I was a little bisexual or what.”
Meh. Most people have the odd “bisexual daydream” now and again, and it wouldn’t be weird if there was more to it than that, either.
Yay! I’m glad you liked it!! You are right, it doesn’t matter. I realized also that the POV of the piece could be a guy–I don’t really know. So silly to worry about things and keep awesome creations in the closet for no reason. I’m glad I shared this 😀 Thanks Syrens, you rock
