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?
Michele Bacon Keep writing. That is the only answer. There are a million trips and traps and superstitions, but really? All you can do is keep writing. Keep learning. Push the negativity out of your head and get on with it. Perhaps the most difficult aspect of moving stories from your brain to someone else's brain is removing all the negativity. There's not too much competition. There aren't too many books. We haven't yet read YOURS. Write it. And, if that one doesn't reach readers as you'd like, write another, and another. With each new manuscript, you will become a better writer. It takes a lot of time...but the time will pass either way. Best to do the thing you want to do, right?
