You're welcome @writingamigo! Oh yeah, remind me how old I am! Lol. Just kidding. I totally get what you're saying, I've been through those same cycles of elation and self-doubt. I believe this is what has driven many famous writers to drink.
I chose a little different path, a day job that has nothing to do with writing. In many ways this made it more difficult but it allowed me to keep my writing separate.
I'm glad to hear I've helped you in some way. Try to hang in there and keep that channel between your heart and the paper (or computer screen) clear and flowing. You're doing great.
