Ed Lee just told me he met Jack Ketchum by writing him a fan letter.
I hope each one of us tells our stories for our families and friends and for others out there so we don't feel so alone. I think the quest for fame and money is where it gets a bit murky. Even those tales can be learning opportunities.
I'm glad we met at Killercon. We all need each other, no matter age, background or experience. Everyone is interesting!
Well ... I can't even get a following on Wattpad despite having two stories shortlisted for the Wattys in one year. Something tells me I'm just not a person who can write things other people want to read. Considering I broke my own heart not understanding the publishing business for some thirty years, life conspired to keep me from writing for a long time via the process of family caregiving, and ... oh, yeah. Right. No one wants what I write! It's probably best to just stick to fan fiction. You get more readers writing a Star Wars fan fic than would ever discover any ebook I struggled for years to finish, format, and publish.

Meh. No, thanks.
Unfortunately, we can’t always choose our audience.
You also can't force an audience to choose you. You either have the kind of brain that comes up with things other people like ... or you don't.
