Remember that it’s okay to write and publish just to make yourself happy, to make yourself fulfilled. There will be authors out there, readers, publishing experts, and booksellers who say that this outpouring of unprofessional drek is ruining the industry, which makes me wonder if these same people drive through neighborhoods yelling and screaming at people gardening in their back yards, shouting at them that, 'You’ll never be a farmer!' Or if they cruise past community basketball courts where men and women unwind with games of pickup and shout at them, 'You’ll never make it in the NBA!'
—Hugh Howey
How long
How long we will insist that winter is just late autumn.
