This collection of quotes, and inspirational stories from writers who have achieved success, despite years of uphill battles, will pick you up when you’re struggling, and remind you it’s all worth it.
The book begins with quotes on doubts and fears, to reassure you that even long established, successful writers go through the same. Let the good advice, and the blunt opinions, keep you on track when you’re writing more trash than treasure. Practical editing tips will help you decide what needs to to be trashed, and see that the initial pain of cutting out your precious gems is worthwhile.
Knowing authors you love have had exactly the same challenges will encourage you to pick up your pen, or tap on those keys – and never give up. Along with death and taxes, two more things can be guaranteed when you become a writer: bad reviews, and rejection. The stories of famous authors, who waited years before they found any measure of success, show you have to love what you write about, to be able to dig deep to persevere.
Whether you’re writing your first book, or your 100th, everyone needs motivation and inspiration, and I’m sure these quotations will make a difference when you’re facing a blank page. $0.99 on Kindle.
