Today has been a busy day, been mugging up on the practicalities of my newly chosen career path. Getting published really isn't an easy thing to do, and I really enjoy self-publishing wwhich cuts out a ton of really hard work, but if I am going to take this seriously I guess I have to try to take it on board and do it properly.
I am really proud of what I have written so far, but I am nervous of rejection and of really harsh criticism so self-publication has been a convenient way around that, but I know that in order to become a better writer, and to give you - my lovely readers - something that is worth reading, with plots that are watertight and characters that you can almost imagine you are sitting next to, I have to suck it up and put them out there to be criticised.
Anyone got any hints on how to get over my fears?!! All suggestions gratefully received, and anything within legal constraints will be considered! Also, anyone got any photos of a tiny little village/hamlet in Australia - I'm struggling to picture one, and make it real enough in the new book! xxx
