and Liesl,I agree that...Thanks Rockin' Rowes :)<br />and Liesl,I agree that even if nobody ever even reads my stories, and they sit on my computer forever, I'll probably keep writing them. But it's still a shame we missed that lovely day of large advances ;-)gaylenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17233169179124612848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2314399666197759379.post-7567791982138866202011-08-24T10:44:35.329-06:002011-08-24T10:44:35.329-06:00Keep books alive!

It's not something ...I read the entire article. It's not something that new and aspiring (or even veteran) authors want to hear. But we have to face reality. <br /><br />At the end of the day, I don't worry about the money. I didn't start writing for the money and I hope I never do. It's nice to be able to live on what you love, but there aren't many authors who can do that. They do it because they love it. The goal is to write the very best books possible and have as many people read them as possible. Do I hope money follow that? Yes, of course. Will I stop if it doesn't? I guess it depends on my circumstances. But as long as circumstances will allow, I will write.Liesl Shurtliffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09064620851881036609noreply@blogger.com
