When I was in college, I&#8217;d do free writing not knowing why, only knowing that I needed to move my hand across the page. Twelve years ago I committed to writing novels above all else even though it was the scariest thing in the world to me.<\/p>\n<p>Now, my persistence is more on the marketing and sales front. I&#8217;ve written 5 novels, published one, so far. I&#8217;ve had to learn how to market and sell my work, and my services related to writing and editing.<\/p>\n<p>When ! started my business ~4+ years ago, I didn&#8217;t know how to run a business, how to market or sell, at least not consciously. I only had my innate chattiness and my willingness to dive into the mix. Boy, did I crash into hopelessness, confusion and fear!<\/p>\n<p>Now, with the guidance of some amazing coaches, I have a thriving business. I understand the nuts and bolts of sales and marketing. Et volia! And I&#8217;m more committed than ever to doing what it takes to reach my goals, both in sales and in writing accomplishments.<\/p>\n<p>It hasn&#8217;t been easy.<\/p>\n<p>But I had and have the one ingredient I believe in the most: I will keep going, learning, trying new things, forever.<\/p>\n<p>What keeps me going?<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s the real secret. And each of us has to discover the <strong>why<\/strong> for themselves. Sorry folks. But it&#8217;s true. You can&#8217;t borrow my motivation, but you can run along side me for a while. We can keep each other company.<\/p>\n<p>Well, that&#8217;s it for today. I gotta run!<\/p>\n<p>And remember, you can do this because you want it bad enough!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Talent? Mojo? The secret awesome kick ass plot? Money?
