In reply to Geneva Waldorf. Thank you very much, Geneva! Always glad to help people through my mistakes :) It took me a while to realise that "getting published" would involve a series of small steps and wasn't achievable all at once. I guess it really is all about the journey and not the destination! Sam

Thanks for the ideas, Sam. Great advice. I also need to read, read, read, which I love to do but life gets in the way. My phone is getting rather heavy with all the kindle books I want to read. 🙂
Here’s to a great 2017!

In reply to Sue McDonagh. Lol, thanks Sue :) Yes, I used to resolve to get published but, after a while, realised that getting published, to a degree, was out of my hands and at the mercy of others. So I think it's better to resolve to achieve more concrete things and be proud of those achievements. Good luck this year! Sam x

Thanks Sam, great post as usual – and I see I’ve already fallen foul of the ‘don’t resolve to get published this year’ comment!

Wishing you a Happy and Creative New Year x

Great advice, Sam. We are fortunate to live at a time and in a society where we have the ability to spread our words and ideas far and wide. Wishing you all a creative 2017.
