A Writer's Call
Like a solider called to duty, we are called by our passion to write. We are not to be a summer soldier in the calling of writing, but to follow our rigorous commission with a persistant tenacity required of a soldier in battle.
Tenacity. That is what it takes. Tenacity and conviction. Only when the writer truly becomes determined to become published does publication approach. Writing here and there won't cut it. A writer writes whenever he or she can, and sometimes more than that.
Treat your writing like a business and eventually it will treat you like a business owner.
Publication is only one "yes" away - - it's just a matter of finding the person in the industry willing to take a chance on you.
