Sometimes taking my mind of it works wonders. Although I have the benefit of not doing this as my day job, so it doesn't mater so much if I don't write, other than my own feelings of guilt!(less)

Keep writing. Do your best to enjoy the process, or trick yourself into it by rewarding yourself for a job well done every time you come to the end of a writing session.

However, if it's about getting published, remember it's highly improbable any of us will be the next big thing. It takes a certain amount of luck to get noticed and to get things turning over. That said: keep writing. The more you practise, the luckier you'll get.(less)

Jo’s Quotes

“Hello babies. Welcome to Earth. It's hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It's round and wet and crowded. On the outside, babies, you've got a hundred years here. There's only one rule that I know of, babies-"God damn it, you've got to be kind.”
― Kurt Vonnegut
