Learn to accept rejection. Even after you've learned your craft and polish your pitches. Then self-publish. #getpublished101

Writing will push you to breaking. Piece yourself back together and keep going - you'll be surprised what you can handle! #getpublished101

Don't be afraid to let someone rip your book apart at the seams. Your job then is to re-sew it into something better #getpublished101

Be a discerning reader, but not preemptively. Read the good and bad to learn what you admire and what you wish to avoid. #getpublished101
