Lousy writer she says....hmmm....why is it that some of the most talented 
people I know in almost every field have the worst time recognizing their 
own talent?

I know my own limitations.  We had that drilled into us over and over again,
"Recognize your skills, but know your limitations."  I am a bad writer who
is fortunate enough to have a few people enjoy what I write.  Compared to
the real writers, I have very little importance.

Humility is a good thing to have (hint to most of the ML ;)  ), but an
inferiority complex can be worse than a big ego.  To be honest, i didn't read
what u wrote (hey u can't read everything on this ML),  but i've found that 
other people's positive opinions r usually more realistic than one's self-
image.  Please note, i said poitive opinions, *not* negative ones.  Don't
be so hard on yourself.  If so many people r trying to tell u something,
maybe u should listen.  Just my $.04 (Inflation :p )
