Quotes by Heather Sellers  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“When you write, you believe in something no one else can see. You spend lots of time committed to a project for which there are no assurances, no guarantees. Being a writer subjects you to the same doubts, the same unpopularity, the same nagging questions that believers struggle with. Writing is communing with the unseen…”
Heather Sellers, Chapter After Chapter: Discover the Dedication and Focus You Need to Write the Book of Your Dreams

“I think everyone has one day like this, and some people have more than one. It's the day of the accident, the midlife crisis, the breakdown, the meltdown, the walkout, the sellout, the giving up, giving away, or giving in. The day you stop drinking, or the day you start. The day you know things will never be the same again.”
Heather Sellers, You Don't Look Like Anyone I Know: A True Story of Family, Face Blindness, and Forgiveness

“Writing a book is exactly like love. You don’t hold back. You give it everything you have. If it doesn’t work out, you’re heartbroken, but you move forward and start again anyway. You have to.
You don’t hold some of yourself in reserve. It’s all or nothing. There are no guarantees. ”
Heather Sellers, Chapter After Chapter: Discover the Dedication and Focus You Need to Write the Book of Your Dreams
