Writer Worries

Writer Worries

Sometimes I imagine never reaching my goals. I imagine never actually publishing anything. I imagine my typing fingers and my creative mind turning to mush and never being able to write again. When I think of these things, I want to curl up and weep.

Query Letters

Writing a query letter to sell a story that you just poured all your energy into writing is, in my opinion, the suckiest part of trying to be a writer. I wrote one query letter and immediately sent it out (dumb), only to receive rejections (of course). I…
