This doesn't mean write every day for a certain amount of time. It means don't give up on your writing. If a story isn't working, then fine. Move on. Start a new story.
Accept that rejection is a part of being a writer. You will always face rejection. Even the most famous writers still face rejection.
Writing is supposed to be what we love. If you don't love it, then what are you doing? So don't forget what you're writing for. (less)

Clandestine's 1st Birthday!

Clandestine by Hannah Rials by Valarie Budyr It's extremely surreal to celebrate the first birthday of my second book, which means Ascension is nearly two years old!
But really, these stories are much older to me than just two years. I started writing the story that would become Ascension when I was twelve years old. This was after blitz reading Twilight and Vampire Academy and House of Night and Blue Bloods. I attribute my writing caree Read more of this blog post »
