I hate making mistakes.
I hate having weaknesses.
And I know that the Lord gives us weaknesses, or allows us to have them, so that we can be humble, but I'm telling you right now, it's not working with me. I AM NOT HUMBLE!
I'm just pathetic.
So I got up this morning and went straight to the computer to see if I'd gotten any new reviews. I had. On Wattpad, a reader pointed out that I had gotten the psychology of my story completely wrong. Once she'd pointed it out, I could see exactly where she was right and I was wrong. I am absolutely devastated, and angry with myself for ever thinking I could pull it off. I should have known I didn't have the skills, and probably never will. I might be good with grammar and spelling, but I have a huge weakness in the emotional department. My first reaction is to erase everything about the story and pretend it never happened, to cover up this huge mistake. How can I continue to let people read it, knowing that it's wrong? Knowing that it's stupid? Theoretically, I know I hve some readers who won't care and who'll want to read to the end, to see what happens, but ... I just don't know.
