UGH!!!!!!!

WHY do people minimize what I do for work?  WHY do people think I don't actually DO anything?! I actually had a woman accuse me of LYING about being a freelance writer.  Because I "had only been published online" and she also accused me of only self publishing.  I told her, if it's published, I was paid for it.  There's also plenty out there that I have ghost written.  And then I walked away.  I will not allow people to minimize me or my efforts.  As a brilliant woman once said, nobody can make you feel inferior without your consent.  That really is a phrase to live by.

Well I think you're pretty cool Tracy - where would I be without your photography blogs. If I'm in Australia and you're in the U.S, it has to be published for me to be able to read it. Live what you've just said: I will not allow people to minimize me or my efforts. I dare you to do a journal entry or blog on all your successes. Mxx
