Hemingway and Emile Zola

Been reading a terrific biography of Emile Zola after having completed a biography of Henry Miller. One connection they have with every author who ever lived – poor reviews. So, Hemingwaywantabes, never let rejection bother you. Certainly learn from criticism, but keep pumping out your words and do your very best to tell the story you want to tell. Revise, revise, revise, and then revise again, but be true to yourself. More tips like this are available free if you download my book, How to Become A Published Author: Idea to Publication, displayed above. Since the new Thomas Merton biography is my twentieth book, I actually know what I am talking about when it comes to the publishing process. Please take a gander and then let me know if there is anything I may do to help you with your book.
