Meet you in the street.
Challenge #9
In your own space, brag about yourself. Tell us what things you've done that you're proud of; the things that make you the wonderful person you are. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.
I've been told by three people, all independent of each other, I talk the same way I write, which makes me deeply happy.
I've also been told by three completely different people, who again were acting independent of each other, I have a very good phone voice, with one of them saying I managed to sound authoritative - which I'll take with gusto.
I regularly hit my daily wordcount writing goals, I'm good at making tea, I've been told I have lovely skin.
I've written stories that helped people get started writing themselves. I've written stories that have made people laugh and cry. I've written stories people have had to walk away from or skim while looking through their fingers because I depicted the conditions they live with more truthfully than anything they'd read before. I've written stories that people have told me were the first places they felt they saw themselves.
People have told me that the stories I've written - the stories I wanted to write because I so very much wanted to read them myself - helped them find themselves.
This is a space for bragging, so brag I will. And even with such room for that, I'd say that's something to be genuinely proud of.
