Dear Rory,
You are so wise and I need your advice now more than ever.
How can I decide if my writing is finished? Should I walk away? Go get a drink? Throw it away and start all over? Sincerely, Carrie S

Dear Carrie S,
Yes, this is one of the most difficult of questions, as most of my gentle readers know. Dear Rory spends maybe one or two hours a week trying to help people with my wonderful advice! It is so hard being a creative person *sigh*. I feel the pain. I just love humanity and want to help.

Is it good enough? Is it strong enough? I always find myself questioning that.
First of all you should always have a drink in your hand. ALWAYS!
It keeps the creative juices flowing and brings happiness to your heart (aka liver).

Secondly, who are you writing/painting/making art for? The answer should be yourself.
It's hard to know when a piece is "finished". As a rule of thumb, Dear Rory will make a painting in a night and then call it good, then sign it. Once signed, it is done. One's mood changes so much from day to day that it changes the piece.

Keep it as it is, and start something new!
All My Love,
