@langamaphumulo5009 9 ай бұрын

What kind of ropes do you wanna be shown? I have been writing privately for years. It's an expression of what you feel, it's personal to you and your book should reflect you, which is what will make it unique. A writing friend might influence you to see things their way, whereas you should be content to see them your way. What has stopped me from publishing so far is a scary thought of having someone else edit my work, to give it an appearance i don't wish for it.
