How did you handle the pressure of being a young ambitious writer?
David Duane Kummer
Thanks so much for the insightful question! Let me start off by saying that no matter what age you are, everybody's on the same playing field. There is no NBA or NFL of authors. We're all in the same stores, with the same computers, proposing our books to the same readers. The key to being a young author is to keep improving, because that's what you have special: potential. Everybody has it; you just have to improve yourself and use it.
Being an author is great fun if you let it be. Don't be overly competitive or hurt people to get to the top. We're all in this together. There's no need to be rude or stubborn. Make friends, make memories, and make books!
