Writing Success Comes From Consistent, Long‑Term Effort
A lot of people assume authors “make it” because of one breakout book. That’s not usually how it works. Most “overnight successes” are years deep in the writing trenches. Multiple releases. Series.

(From Corralling those imaginary friends.) So keep writing.
