I was amazed because he had just read it fast once before he read it in front of everybody! Some people are just good at it. Isn't it hard to believe that was already--what? 5-6 years ago?

I so know what you mean about not only public speaking in front of groups but reading your own work...yikes. I don't even want to think about it! :) Congrats again!Jenifleur-de-lishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04944454031179204934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-58514671732985812502010-02-17T14:49:51.032-06:002010-02-17T14:49:51.032-06:00Thanks Sue!

Yes--I am better one-on-one, too. And even then I can kind of lose it, too. So strange because I am normally not a cryer and I can talk "about" personal things moreso than a lot of people, I guess. But my writing just comes in closer, you know? Anyways, another new and exciting experience in my life. :):) Thanks so much!!Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02043285884495492598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-46367108748173426292010-02-17T06:21:30.767-06:002010-02-17T06:21:30.767-06:00OMG, Rita, that was such exciting news for you!!! ...OMG, Rita, that was such exciting news for you!!! WTG!! I'm so glad to hear that all went well. I'll be able to say...<i>I knew her when.</i> :)<br /><br />I get nervous and trip over my words when I realise a group of people are listening to me. I'm okay one-on-one but more than that makes me very self-conscious and I say stupid things. <br /><br />As for reading out emotional stories or poems...I'm useless...even on a one-on-one basis! I start reading/recounting a story/poem...then I start crying and my voice cracks while I try to stop myself from crying...although I do manage to get the odd word out here or there....I'm such a sap! lolSerena Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17789734075055678964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-3965808197665496692010-02-17T02:48:42.567-06:002010-02-17T02:48:42.567-06:00Hi Julie!

It sounds like you and I both feel the same about public speaking. I am still shaky afterwards for a while and it takes some time for me not to feel ill--so I totally relate--hehe! Hey! Silver lining! Since my health is so poor I won't ever have to do more than a phone interview--ROFL!!! :):)Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02043285884495492598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-83513055712882780052010-02-16T12:42:23.002-06:002010-02-16T12:42:23.002-06:00What exciting news!!

I felt like my heart was gonna jump right out of my chest and my voice cracked, too. I felt physically ill until it was over. <br /><br />I hope you were able to get some sleep. Congrats on the poem. :)AliceKayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12027650364526343030noreply@blogger.com
