We Are All Dying Of Life.

Be Persistent. Editors Change; Tastes Change; Editorial Markets Change. Too Many Beginning Writers Give Up Too Easily.

No Writer Should Minimize The Factor That Affects Everyone, But Is Beyond Control: Luck.

The Pain Comes From Knowing That We Have Never Been Safe, And Therefore Will Never Be Safe Again. It Comes From Knowing We Can Never Be So Ignorant Again. It Comes From Knowing We Can Never Be Children Again. Losing Innocence. Remembering Heaven. That Was The Essence Of Hell.

We Are All Dying Of Life.

Spend As Much Time As You Can With Your Mouth Shut And Your Eyes And Ears Open.
