Writers Dilemma

Writers Dilemma...

often people ask me one question...

Can i submit my writing and will you tell if it would sell....
And before i can read it i say yes it will....

Am i lying no... am i telling the truth no...

the manuscript first needs to be sold to ourselves... if we are not convinced then how come we will convince others...
and secondly it doesn't matter whether i appreciate it or not.. there are people who will appreciate it and there are people who will never appreciate..

i have got reviews for my first book " i couldn't wait to finish it" or "i finished it by 2.40 AM" etc...
and i say wow did i do that.. :) :D (Y)

and then someone writes "what a crap it is" ... i couldn't go beyond a few pages... and i say phusssss saari hawa nikal gayi ... :P

And then i realized only one thing... do your best... be convinced about your project... some will appreciate and some wont.. the will's will encourage you and the wont's would make you stay grounded (humble)

So keep writing and if no publisher publishes... self publish it...

remember "Every person on this earth has a story to tell... only a few have the patience to write it down... and more so only few have the guts to get it published... if you publish a book you make it to the 0.02% of the population... and if you publish your second book then you make it to 0.002% .. that itself is a big achievement .....

happy writing... and who knows you are writing history..... :D
