A Goodreads user asked Jenn Bishop:

what does it mean and take to become an author?

Jenn Bishop Becoming a traditionally published author (i.e. your books are widely available in bookstores and libraries) takes a lot of patience, persistence, hard work, and luck. We have control over the first three, so I encourage aspiring authors to focus on them!
