And standards change which makes it even more confounding!

You absolutely should! What makes you think people don't like your stories? I've always enjoyed your writing.

Beautiful tribute. <3

This post is fantastic!

I don't think there can ever be too much writing on writer's block. TBH I write about it to get past it. LOL. I look forward to reading yours!

Agreed!

That is truly a tough call. :-(

I'm with you on this. I was thinking about all the writing I've done publicly and the only times I've been heavily questioned or accused of lying are when I write about violence committed by white people,
