The question becomes, who are we writing for? Why are we writing? Are we doing it solely for the money or are we doing it for God? Are we seeking treasure upon earth or heaven? If you find yourself at a crossroads this year on whether or not to continue writing and trying to publish your works, then perhaps you need to shut down the computer, put down the pen, fold up the paper, and earnestly, fervently, passionately seek God until He gives you an answer.
If you’ve ever attended a writers conference one of the most emphasized instructions is to learn your craft. Like a lion preys around, studying his subject before he goes after it, we must be diligent in understanding the craft of writing so we can make our books the best they can be. Just like putting together a puzzle, it takes patience, determination, and perseverance. It requires time, effort, and energy.
If you're an editor, like me, it can be difficult to keep reading when there are so many mistakes involved. But if we quit reading simply because we can't get through the mistakes, we may miss the message of the writer.
Are you a writer that feels burned out? Thinking about calling it quits? Encouragement for when you need permission to take a break.
