A - Z Series. . .Become A Best Selling Author - J Is For Journey

Journey - a traveling from one place to another, usually taking a rather long time;  passage or progress from one stage to another.

Maybe it's the destination of seeing your story in print, your book occupying real estate in Barnes and Noble, the book signings, a flexible schedule, or the money that keeps you moving forward. But it's the journey you'll spend the most time on. So how do you stay motivated in the present, while writing towards your destination?

A - Z Series. . .Become A Best Selling Author - I Is For Individuality

Individuality - The particular character, collection of qualities and traits that distinguishes one person or thing from others; sole and personal nature.

Individuality is formed by what you're born with, situations and people in your environment, and then ultimately, by the choices you make for your life. We were meant to be different from the moment our bald (or in my case, curly topped) heads emerged into the world. If you're a parent you've witnessed how different your children are. Even twins possess distinct personalities. How do you contrast from your siblings? My brother and I are complete opposites.
