Success Through Trying

Hi, It's Heather again

I got some good advice randomly from my boss on Friday. I thought about it all weekend really. “The only way to succeed is to try.” What have I got to lose by submitting my work through that website earlier than when my best friend finishes my book? She was hooked by the first three chapters so why not?

Now, I do understand that I will have some rejection letters coming my way, and why shouldn’t they have their own opinions? I encourage helpful criticisms. Anything that would help to improve my writing I welcome as a learning experience. Anyway I see each “failure” as an opportunity to try and try again. Some of those publishers won’t even think my material is worth them publishing or even in the same category.

I think I will start a subscription to that website at the end of the month. The sooner I do it the sooner the process will be over.
