Mikayla asked Angel M.B. Chadwick:

Ms, Angel. Bless you! Your answer provided me with a wealth of insight. I appreciate it so much! My college degree is going to be inn professional communications. Who knows, maybe that will open some doors for me. How long did it take from start to finish to publish your first book?

Angel M.B. Chadwick Communications is also one of the college courses I went into. Believe me it will help you in the future and it'll open doors for you. So hold onto that. To publish my first book it took me over twenty years. I started writing on it when I was fifteen. It was a book of poetry. And my second only took five. Writing and publishing takes time. And life can get in the way. But it was the right time for me to publish because I had time to learn and experience more with this writing and publishing industry along the way. You will know when it's the right time for you to publish your work for the world to see. Don't let anyone else rush you or try to tell you different. Success takes time. It is a marathon not a sprint. But be determined, dedicated but bring your dreams to fruition on your own terms and timeline. That's what I did. Always be a student and learn something, everything along the way so your dream can be more affirmed into reality. I'm glad I could help. Good luck on your journey, Mikayla!
