Don't Quit - Submit!


Another year has come and gone.
What accomplishments did you have in your writing last year?
Did you obtain a great contract with a big publisher?
Did you get on the best seller list?


Maybe not.
But, I bet you made smaller accomplishments.
These small accomplishments add up.
They are important and keep us on our path to being published.

If you didn't give up, you made a very important accomplishment.

 

What do you want to accomplish this year?

One year I made a resolution to submit at least once a month. And, you know what, I did.

Your stories can't get accepted if you don't send them out. I sent out submissions last year in February, March, April, May, June and September.

So far, I have received 3 rejections.  But, I also placed first and second in a contest.

 

I am going to pledge to send out submissions every month this year.
Want to join me?

They could be submissions to magazines, book publishers, contests, etc.

Let's start the year out right by getting our manuscripts out into the world.

But --- make sure your manuscripts are ready. More on that later.

If you don't give up, you have taken the first step to being published!



Happy Writing.
