DESPAIR
You find yourself in the sea of despair, drowning under the inability to manifest your desires into reality?
Why?
Have you reached the point of plateau where you can no longer continue to improve? Unlikely, but if so, then perhaps it is time you move on and find another focus for your creativity.
More likely, you have lost perspective and are actually wallowing in self-pity. Therefore, it is time that you stop thinking about yourself, and start thinking about those around you.
Your family is relying on you to pull yourself together and lead. There is no time for your self-pity and indulgent thoughts as to why readers are not buying your books.
No.
It is time you focus on those readers who have bought your books in the past. They are waiting on you to release new material.
Are you going to let all those readers down, just because you are having a bad day?
What of your children? Are you going to set the example that it is okay to give up on your destiny, just because the journey hit a rough patch? Or are you going to buckle down, and remind yourself that you are here to serve your readers?
Write the damn words, and publish them for your fans. Quit thinking everything is about you!

Struggling to make your writing dream a reality?
Can’t find the fire inside to finish that book?
Worried no one will want to read your book?
It’s time you Slay Your Dragon!
This is not another craft book. Or yet another, writer, writing about writing.
No.
Slay Your Dragon: a Motivational Guide for Writers is a series of daily meditations from Nicholi A.K. Baldron.
This book was produced using his own personal journal of tough love feedback to himself.
Follow along and see what he told himself to become an international bestseller in Fantasy and Mystery.
WARNING: This book is not intended for those with a sensitive disposition, there are several other excellent books that are less blunt. Instead, I have published this for fellow authors like myself, who need to be called out for their possible hubris and sometimes thick-headed nature.
