Don't worry. There are no rules. Sure there will always be someone better, but rest assured also someone much, much worse.
The important first thing, is to make a difference for yourself.
I've blogged before about people who give up because they think they don't have enough talent. My soul lifts a little when I see someone sing horrifically at karaoke; not because he or she sang poorly, but because regardless, they got up and sang - their joy in the song is the important thing to behold.
Sure - it's hard to find your stride, but like a baby's first steps turn into a wobbly run, so too should we expect a rocky road to our success. And how, after all this, do we measure our progress? Simple: from where we started.
California - You have a great insight, and even better taste in the blogs you visit. :)
I hope you start writing online soon, and send me a link.

I agree with you totally - daring to try is the brave and beautiful thing and as I read the other day 'in order to do something well you must first be prepared to do it badly - sometimes really badly'. As for boredom on a Friday/Saturday night - I will also be home alone tonight and wondering why. My son's at his dad's and the guy who has my heart has apparently forgotten he has it! We should start a club for the disenchanted....oh I guess we kind of already have!
Never disenchanted Jacie, perhaps instead eternal optimists?
What do you think?
absolutely! I am in fact eternally enchanted by most things...
On this I have to say it is not me to be consistent. Also, while not shy, I'm not social in the way of a blog. I do have an idea I am considering and will link you when it becomes more than an idea.
Meanwhile, you and yours are a joy.
