What does literary success look like to you?

For me, literary success is a staircase from the floor of pre authorship to the floor of authorship (as a career that makes money). I have succeeded in climbing some steps, and there are more steps to go.

It was actually kinda nice to see this topic come up, because when I started thinking about it, I felt good about what I’ve accomplished so far. Right now I’m focused on continuing to improve. I keep my eyes on the next step, but every now and then I look up to remind myself of where I’m going.

So, in sum. I’m proud of this

The 5 books of the Endeavor Series, which will have 12 by the time I’m done.
I also have 2 non fiction books, and I’ll be adding more non fiction
and stand alone books in the future. I love big books and I cannot lie. :o) ❤

 

and I look forward to writing more books! Yes, I would like to make decent money someday for all my  hard work. I love my craft, so I’ll do it anyway, but the goal is to have a career of it eventually. The arts are often tricky, so I try not to worry too much. I work hard and don’t give up. And I try to remember that I’m a success now.

Listen, writing a book is no small thing. It takes hard work and dedication. So while you are on your journey, don’t forget to look around and remember all the hard work you’ve put it! Success isn’t flat, easy, and immediate. Take a moment now and then to celebrate whatever level of success you’ve achieved!  Dance party on the stairs!

Speaking of parties, I can’t wait to find out what the other authors have said:
