Anybody who writes a book is an optimist.
First of all, they think they’re going to finish it.
Second, they think somebody’s going to publish it.
Third, they think somebody’s going to read it.
Fourth, they think somebody’s going to like it.
How optimistic is that?
Margaret Atwood
No matter if you are right in the middle of NaNoWriMo, just general writing pain or no pain at all, enjoy the rest of your month. The year is slowly coming to an end and it’s about time to wrap up the odd ends and pieces.
(And, if you must, kill your darlings.)
Have a productive week! Stay happy, healthy and sane.

OK, 1+2 habe ich irgendwie hinbekommen, fehlt noch die Anleitung wie 3+4 zu bewergstelligen ist…dabei bin ich Berufspessimist…werde also vermutlich mit meiner gesamten Buchauflage schlussendlich die Wohnung tapezieren können 🙂 Herzlicher Gruss, Jürgen
Ja, das ist so eine Sache mit dem Träume erfüllen. Ich quäle mich noch mit Schritt 1 … Es ist dieser Tage bestimmt auch nicht einfach, Werbung für ein Buch zu machen, wenn die klassischen Wege ausfallen, wegen ist nicht. Trotzdem, alles Gute

OK great well I look forward to read it if you ever publish
😅
Very wise words from Margaret Atwood! We risk a lot when we write books that’s for sure!
Some people have been known to write blogs, rather than books … 😉
Oh yes i can relate to that hehehe
🤭 I’ve read that once and I remembered. (Personally, I’m so not like that. Erm …)
Great post !! Love it. Happy Gratitude month !
Margaret Atwood is an inspiration … sometimes you just have to buy your own book to boost sales. That would likely be my fate, unless there were a lot of squirrel lovers out there.
Margaret surely doesn’t fall flat here … If I ever make it, buy my books 😉
Will do!!
Thanks Linda 😉
Mind you, at this point, Margaret Atwood has pretty good reason to be optimistic about all those things …
Yeah, I know … Half of her talent & money …
Oh so true I suppose. I never wrote a book but I want to think I would write it first and foremost for myself and the ones around me. I don’t think you start a painting with the hope to sell it. At least I hope so.
That is a really good point!
