Looking Forward

In a previous entry (featuring a picture of the late, great Dr. Seuss!) I talked about rejection. I'm almost at the point where I'm going to start researching publishers and such to get my novel out there. This can be a very daunting task. You don't want to rush into something just to get published. I want to make the best decision I can in order to make what I have written worthwhile. That's how anyone should approach life in general. Don't rush into any kind of decision. Think about it and go from there.

This novel is very important to me. It's like my child. I've been spending time with it everyday for hours now. If you aspire to do something, make sure you are dedicated to it. If you are, everything will fall into place. I'm trying to get my own life together in order to make something of myself in the future. I just want to be successful and make a difference.

"We'll never know
If we don't let go
To the things that hold us and control us
We're catching up
Up to the moment
In every moment lies a chance to win"
-Benton Paul "Run"

i believe in that
i onced asked a sgt. of mine "how come your told to not ask questions and just do?" he replied sometimes if you question things youll be hesitant to do things and you might not follow threw with something and sometimes you just gotta trust it. i just gotta trust in myself and i hope you do the same good luck with your novel

Thank you! I agree with what you are saying. You just gotta go with what your heart is telling you sometimes and stop thinking so much with your head.
