Link of the Day

With thanks to Nalini Singh...for those moments when the glare of your own skepticism burns you like a rogue heat lamp.

I'm no tower of strength. I've cried, screamed and sulked after getting a rejection. And then I've picked myself back up, dusted myself off and started again. That, more than anything, is what makes me a writer. Giving up is easy. Sticking to this writing gig when every other day you seem to be hit with a rejection, is hard. Incredibly, terribly hard. My motivation comes from the fact that I can't not write. I can't not create.

Amen, amen, amen.
