Your writing schedule while you were teaching sounds a lot like mine. Writing before work, on weekends, and during summers off has enabled me to finish 10 books so far. And it took me 8 years to get that first sale.<BR/><BR/>I agree with you. Perseverence and persistence are key to making it in this business. And staying in it.<BR/><BR/>Thanks again!<BR/><BR/>~Bullet Hole~Kathy Bacushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07549844839816876766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4542417548623715196.post-14426081283572655252008-01-07T08:17:00.000-06:002008-01-07T08:17:00.000-06:00Nina,what a great post!

I've seen a lot of very talented writers give up, while I've seen other writers who, while they may have not been the best in the group, they worked hard at improving their craft and sold. And are still selling today. It's a crazy business we're in.<BR/><BR/>FayeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4542417548623715196.post-24390842289120621232008-01-06T17:32:00.000-06:002008-01-06T17:32:00.000-06:00I am so glad you did not give up writing.

That is determination.
