Writing
 Thought for the Writer's Day: How Can
I Succeed as a Writer?
Never give up. Get used to the fact that you'll be
rejected a lot. Bloody noses come with the turf.
Being rejected and treated unfairly is part of the
job, but that's true of many jobs if you stop to think
about it. Do teachers get treated fairly by all the
kids? Do cops always get treated fairly? Are airline
cabin staff called peanut pushers out of respect? What
about telemarketers?
If you ask me, writers have a pretty sweet deal. All
they need to do is pluck up the courage to send work
to an editor or and agent. C'mon, you don't even have
to shower or get dressed!

"Going here and clicking on the button once a day may help save a life. That's not too much to ask, is it?" Nope.
