What does it take to succeed in the world of writing?
You can read all the self help books on the shelf, but that's not going to get you published. You can take courses at top universities, set aside time for writing daily, and join writers groups. But that is still not going to guarantee you will be a paid writer.
You have to believe in yourself. You have to be your own personal cheerleader, coach and biggest fan.
If you don't believe in yourself, how can you expect others to?
The difference in the writer who has 3 manuscripts collecting dust and published authors like JK Rowling, Hugh Howie and Amanda Hocking is Rowling, Howie and Hocking believed in their story and themselves as writers.
They persevered and never took no for an answer. Sure Rowling suffered rejection after rejection for Harry Potter for years, and Howie and Hocking both went against the grain and self published the hard way and did all their own marketing after work on their downtime.
But their manuscipts were too busy to collect dust.
They are each worth millions now. Because they believed in themselves.
Believe in yourself.
Back your work up with confidence.
That is the key to becoming a successful writer.
