    This is so insightful, and something I really needed to see as I am finding myself in a similar position. Thank you so much for sharing.

  2. Your section about “That Not Everyone Is Honest” makes a great point. So many people out there want something for nothing, especially if they can turn around and make money for themselves from it.

    Every time — okay, not quite every time — that I tell someone that I’m a writer, I hear something to the effect of “People are always telling me I should write a book because my life has been so interesting. If you write it for me, I’ll pay you half of whatever we make when it sells.” Oh, yeah? You mean, IF it sells… and who’s going to pay my bills while I spend all my time working on this?
