Prove

I'm watching Pit bulls and Parolees and in this particular episode the mom is trying to teach her daughter how to be a dog trainer so she can work with this particular dog they saved. The daughter is becoming increasingly frustrated while the mom is trying to teach her what to do. I'm not completely sure why it stuck out to me. Maybe because Tania felt the need to prove herself and I feel that way every time I think about my writing. I've been told enough that I'm a good writer but I've read great writing and I don't think I'm there yet. I've started reading more since, because of school, I haven't been reading much at all. I really just want to write my novel and get it published because there have been times when I've wondered if I could do it.
I start writing my first novel April 1st and until then I'm going to keep reading and taking mental notes.
