I want to ask all writers who are yet to be published but aspiring to see their books on shelves one day: Why do you want to be published?
For me, it was because of a multitude of reasons 1) I loved writing and wanted to share my stories with people, 2) I wanted to someday make a living out of it, and 3) I perceived that being published would make me feel fulfilled, accomplished – and that I’d be happier if I felt I was successful. What about you?
