                             Time for some inspiration...

                                                         km

    to keep me motivated. What better advice is there than from one of my favorite authors ever, Karen Marie Moning:

    Beware of Italics, Keep the Faith

    I have a folder of rejection letters. I saved every one. And one day, I put my first contract in that folder too. That you're getting rejected means you're one step ahead of most people-- you're taking the risk and trying. Best of Luck!

    Something Karen told someone else:

    yikes

    Trying to get published is going to hurt, it's going to make you cry, it's going to make you feel small and insignificant and hopeless at times. People will ask you (in condescending tones) "How's that little book of yours coming along?" (Little, my petunia.) You'll hate the mailman. You'll alternately feel like the worst writer in the world and a pretty decent one. And if you actually make it through all that and finish the story, land an agent, and get published-- guess what? You'll STILL feel all those things! LOL
