When I launched 30 Days, 30 Queries in 2014, I had no idea this course would lead to award-winning journalism, six-figure careers, and bylines in pretty much every major publication in the world.

My mission, for as long as I can remember, has been to empower writers to make a living doing the work they love.
I want to get 30 Days, 30 Queries into the hands of as many writers as I possibly can. And so, I’m running a massive promotion.
I didn’t think my stories would sell. Submitted them anyway.
Didn’t think editors would like me. Met them anyway.
Didn’t think I was good enough to write for Ms. or NYT or TIME. Pitched them anyway.
Most of my career happened because I did it anyway.

You don’t need to convince hundreds and thousands of people to buy into your work. Not yet.
What you need is ONE editor to buy ONE story.
ONE agent to believe in ONE book.
ONE publisher to see the merit of ONE novel.
ONE reader to purchase ONE copy.
Many years later, I met Sam. We fell in love, and well, here we are. Still going strong after 13 years of marriage.
It wasn’t a life I ever dared dream of. It’s been nothing short of a goddamn fairy tale.

Did you come to play the game or did you just come for the trophy?
Sometimes, in the past, I had eyes only for the trophy, and I had to remind myself that the trophy only mattered because I love playing the game.

Still think about the time I turned down a free trip to an awards function in Japan because I wasn’t going to win anyway.
Not only did I win the first place for my category, but the top Journalist of the Year award.
