Whether it's the fear of failure or fear of looking foolish, or whatever. Try things, do things, and know that you're still going to be okay if it doesn't work out. And also, don't take yourself too seriously. Life is fun, or at least it should be.(less)

Did you know I have an Etsy store? I make bookmarks, jewelry, sun catchers, and all sorts of crafty things when I’m not writing and when I’m thinking about writing things, like dreaming up new and different ways to torment my story characters. Since I make far more things than I could ever use, I sell some of it in the Etsy store, mainly so I can buy more craft materials. I also sell signed books

“Every storm has to calm.
I stood in the color I'd thought had overtaken me, but now I was above it. Finally breaking through the glimmering surface and taking in that breath of air as the ocean blue finally fell away.”
― DeAnna Cameron, What Happened That Night

“I looked a little different, fresher, with bones that were a little stronger. Like someone who knew scars weren't just indications of the wounds inflicted upon us but proof we'd healed from them.”
