once i have been published, then what?

[CameronStone]

Jeez. First up, I really hope you're successful, and I don't mean to be mean, but writing is highly competitive. I've done two national radio programs, two national press interviews, three local press interviews, book signings galore, my work has been well received by critics and my publisher wants to put me forward for several of the major writing awards . . .

. . . and I'm still not making much money.

I'm not bitter about this- I never thought about success in terms of commercial success. For me it was more important to write a book I was proud of, and I have.

Best of luck.
