Dorothy asked Tracy Clark:

Would you ever come to the library where I work and talk about your books? I loved the Cass Raines series and I am about to start the Harriet Foster series. I saw the starred review of Fall in LJ. My name is Dorothy Houlihan and I am a librarian in the Adult and Outreach Services Department of the Niles-Maine District Library in Niles, IL.

Tracy Clark Hi, Dorothy! I love libraries. Yes, I would absolutely come to Niles-Maine.

I'm an aspiring writer, but I'm dealing with two things: I get discouraged every single day because 96% of manuscripts are rejected, and I haven't had an idea for years, literally. There's too many people wanting to be writers, and knowing there's so much competition just kills me a little every day. When I get motivated, immediatly something appears about the industry that kills it. Any tips on how to deal with this?
