“Writers are like farmers: The harvest comes,
but only after you toil for a few seasons.”
~ Cheryl Strayed
You may or may not be happy with your book sales at this
point in time, but the year isn't even half over. Cheryl Strayed's quote reminds
me that effort isn't always instantly rewarded. Hard work pays off, just not usually
right away. Keep working, and it will be worth it when the time comes.

Hi Heather, this is actually a quote from an interview I did with Author Cheryl Strayed. So the attribution should be to her via my piece in WD. Thanks for letting me clarify! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for clearing that up, Christina - that's exactly where this quote came from. I'm updating it now.
DeleteBut if you check out The Writer's Workout, you'll find lots of advice just like this quote. :)
