You know, this piece is really interesting, i also wounder to myself if 200years from now my work will be remembered or even read, still i know that writing is not a course i took but a gift given to me. If people read it or not, the most important thing is that i have used my gift. What is your gift, Karla?

Don't worry Karla, keep dreaming one day your dream will come true with a little hard work. I'm a good example of that. I too had the same dream. One day I told myself I was going to write my book right or wrong. Didn't even care if it was published. The main thing was writing it. The rest is history. Book now published and I'm one of those unknown authors you were talking about. However my book is selling. On Barnes and NOble my sell ranking is about 200,000 which is good amoung millions of other books. On Amazon it is a little under two million which is a lot better than millions of other books. In its category on amazon it stays below 500 on the best selling list for its category out of a thousand other books. Anyway I never was that good in English grammar, in fact I hated it. Never had a writing course in my life. Neither have I had a typing course. I learned all on my own and wouldn't take no for an answer. I wrote, Typed and created my own book. Dream on my dear and have no fear. The only thing worst than not doing it, is letting fear stop you from trying. Loved your poem. Hugs and love Grady

Karla, I have no doubt that someday your dream of being published will come true! You've voiced the wishes of all sincere writers in this well written, expressive poem!

i hope your wishes to be published come true, karla. your writes inspire, touch, teach, make us think; and that is the talent and mark of a truly gifted writer! how you can be overlooked by the world is beyond my comprehension; you deserve to be published, and if anybody else doesn't believe in you, I DO. and do so many others here at authorsden! we love your writes, and i want to thank you for instilling in me, the love and beauty of writing! excellent write! love, your twin (and your biggest supporter and fan), karen lynn.
