Writing is Real Work

Like thousands of others, I’m a writer – an as yet unpublished writer. Unlike thousands of others, I acknowledge that editors and publishing houses generally know their business. There is no conspiracy, no old boys club, no secret formula. The cold truth is that if you write a good story, someone will want to publish it. This is where writing is a business. Despite what some people think, writing is a job and it takes work. It may take a few queries to find the right market. If you write a great story, your job is even easier.
