		<description>Look at you and your comments. :)

I just found your blog about 2 weeks ago, and I love it very much. I was glad when you linked back to this beginnings post. I love to hear people&#039;s histories. 

It is empowering to see someone with their blog act together... and then go back x amount of months and read how it was taking shape.

Sometimes we take steps into the dark, and trust we&#039;re getting somewhere. The only direction is forward.

Thank you.

		<description>I just started my blog a few weeks ago. All my life I&#039;ve wanted to be a writer. Lately I&#039;ve been wondering, how much writing do you have to do to &lt;i&gt;be&lt;/i&gt; a writer?

When I was in college, I took a narrative writing course. The instructor told me that it was clear that I &lt;i&gt;needed&lt;/i&gt; to write. &quot;But,&quot; I argued back (only in my head), &quot;I don&#039;t have anything to say--yet. I&#039;ll have something to say when I&#039;m, oh, fifty.&quot;

So now I&#039;m fifty-two. And I&#039;m blogging. Actually, I&#039;m blogging my guts out. (Mental thread: &quot;Must blog. Must write. Cannot not write.&quot;) So does this mean that I get to think of myself as a writer? I really hope so, because I&#039;m beginning to.

Thanks so much, Havi, for your en-courage-ment!

		<description>This is such a wonderful first post Havi! I had jumped right into reading your current posts and I was sure you had been blogging so much longer than this. When you are ready, you are really ready, aren&#039;t you.

Mahalo nui ~ thank you ~ for sharing your writing with us and everything about you which goes with it.</description>

		<description>He he he - how the universe likes to tease us.

So I just worked out why I&#039;m not pushing a business out onto the interwebs just yet.  To paraphrase:

I need to &quot;work really hard to get better at giving myself permission to take my sweet time to work through my own stuck bits and do things in my own quirky (quirkified?) way. And boy [do] I have a bunch of resistance to work through around this&quot; business thing.

But that means I&#039;ve suddenly got loads of energy for my other projects (I&#039;ve like 4 non-business blog ideas now, 3 of which I&#039;m actively building up right now!)

Then I find my way back to this post through a &#039;related articles&#039; link.  Ok, Universe, I&#039;m getting the hint!

And thanks for launching the blog at the perfect time - just so it was ready for me to turn up and be nourished and lifted up and have happy wonderness happen in my head!

Now, what&#039;s a wordpress API key...?

		<description>Delighted to be making my way backwards through your blog as it appears via RSS since your mention on IttyBiz -- never would&#039;ve found you otherwise.  And yet, when finding your blog and site I felt just like you described your Andy/Naomi discovery.  &quot;Man! I wanna be that!&quot;  But on further reading, I&#039;m reminded that that&#039;s how other people react to me... so you offer much more to me as your Reader/Subscriber/Student than I&#039;d get it I WERE you - ya know? 

Glad you&#039;re putting it out there -- and if you have it in you to write about how you overcame which resistances you had toward blogging... speak up!</description>

		<description>So glad Naomi mentioned you in her post! I popped right over and you are now one of the few blogs I&#039;m committed to reading daily. Thanks for  updates by email, that helps a lot.

And thanks so much for what this blog is already becoming :)</description>

		<description>Uh yeah, the Fluent Self tech division is working on a new technology that will offer &quot;from Havi&#039;s brain to your keyboard&quot; technology. It&#039;s the future, I&#039;m telling you. 

Also, yay! A blogwarming! How heartwarming. Uh oh, I can&#039;t stop saying warming. Make yourself at home, food&#039;s in the kitchen. Thanks for all the encouraging words.</description>

		<description>I was wondering when The Fluent Self would offer &quot;from Havi&#039;s keyboard to my brain&quot; push technology, and now it&#039;s here. Nice!</description>
