Thanks. I’ve got two young kids and a busy job so not as prolific as I’d like. Maybe a book every 3-4 years, longer if it’s a grand fantasy. My first one was a quarter of a million words in a world I created from scratch, so that took maybe 6 years.
Speaking as someone who rarely ever writes because life keeps getting in the way but still hopes to be published someday. Every day it seems that dream gets further and further away… :(
All you need to do is start and do what you can when you can. Spare minutes here and there all add up. Don’t get bogged down in minutiae. You’ll get there no matter how long it takes.

You are an inspiration. :)

THANK you for the advice. I will keep that in mind. I might start writing today while I’m at work. :)
