Question:

When was the moment you first believed you were a writer?

Emily Freeman {Author, Grace for the Good Girl and blogs at Chatting at The Sky} :: When was the moment I first believed I am a writer? oh wow. Why is that so hard to answer? I think because even now, after having written a blog for six years and two books for a publisher, calling myself a writer still makes me feel a little school-girl silly. It’s because I so greatly respect the title. It’s because I so love the title. It’s because I’m a little shy of the title. I think I began to know it for sure when I stopped writing after my husband and I were married ten years ago. And for those few years, I felt a little lost. When I started Chatting at the Sky in 2006, my soul began untangling and it was then that I knew, oh. I feel more myself now. Maybe I’m a writer.

Thank you Emily for your inspiring us with your words! By the way, if you are a fan of “Tuesday Unwrapped”, Emily is bringing it back for the month of December.  I have met the most lovely women on Tuesdays at Emily’s place.  I hope to see you there!
