Oh look, another 'inspired by an MSN conversation with tt42' thread!
What have you recently written that made you look over it and think, "Yeah, that's...that's really good. I can write?"
The reason I ask is tt42 just said, "I don't care if it sounds egotistical, I'm going to say it: I'm inordinately proud of..." and she went on to describe a particular scene in one of her novels. It's up to her if she elaborates here.
Do you ever get that? A feeling of being in the zone and satisfaction in your own work? Not in a boastful way, just a realisation that you might not be completely rubbish at this game after all?
I'm not referring to outside validation at all. Just within yourself.
No need to post excerpts. Just interested in what other folks have felt while writing and vague ideas of the passages you feel you wrote well.
