Dave Howard
Long hours and really, really low pay? I've been working on my current book series, granted not continuously, for forty years.
There are two things, I think, that keep me going. The first is that I have to write. I have a story in me, and the only thing that scratches that itch is writing.
Beyond that, there are the readers. I would write without them. I have written for decades with only my friends and family reading my stories. However, I think my novel has something in it worth reading. I hope that folks will read the story and be impacted in some positive way by what they read.
