Raw creativity has very little do with skill. Creativity is a gift in itself. We're not all going to be Rembrants. Some of us are more inspired by Van Goghe or Picasso.
We're not all going to be prodigies anymore than we're all likely to graduate high school at the age of sixteen. You may decide to begin your first novel at the age of forty. Ever notice how at some point many little girls fantasize about being a bellerina? The rode to heaven is paved with childlike qualities. Don't be afraid to dream. Just remember that serious ballerinas wear their special little shoes out. Their toes bleed. They hunger for goof off time. Famous horror writers aren't ashamed to put their own nightmares down on paper. A good poet is an honest one. The most accomplished vocalists are also avid story tellers. World class dancers speak volumes through body language. Drummers express themselves through the beat of their hearts. So, find out who you are and expect to work on your own character as much as the main character in your novel. Remember, God made you.Therefore he knows more about you than anyone.
