#Writing is Hard

Having just spent hours writing an additional four pages in our e-book that teaches all you wanted to ask about self publishing, my head hurts. Writing is hard!!

I wrote, then I re-wrote and then I wrote again. Then I sent it off for editing - and that's all for only four pages.

It always amazes me that people think they can publish a book in six months. Such a time-line is unrealistic. Most books take at least two years to write but that can stretch out to ten years or more. Nothing is written until you feel that you have put your all into it, accepted criticism, and then made changes until you and your editor are happy.

Only then can you present your work to the public. Take your time. Once you have published, it's out there forever.
