If you are a writer, you have a story to tell


Keep self-doubt at bay!

“Harry Potter” was rejected by 12 publishing houses before it found a home. Author J.K. Rowling is now richer than the Queen of England.

"Lord of the Flies" was rejected 20 times.

"Gone With the Wind" 38 times.

"The Diary of a Young Girl" by Anne Frank 15 times.

Our beloved "Anne of Green Gables" four times.

Stephen King's "Carrie" was rejected 30 times before being bought, then immediately sold into a movie. You can read more about that incredible story here.

Moral of this story?

Don’t give up.

Don’t stop learning.

Don’t stop writing and rewriting.

Keep the faith!
