When I relaunched my blog, I knew I’d eventually hit a wall. Every writer who produces consistent works does. The other day I thought about moving my blog to three days a week instead of every day.
The reason? I was not sure about the post that was about to go live.
If I’m honest I thought it was merely okay. It was fantastic when I wrote it but in the light of the early morning it felt strained. Now, I wasn’t sure how I felt about it.
Then it went live.
I’m thrilled to say I had the most follows I’ve had in several months. I had the most views of the day that week and I had some great comments.
The message of this post is simple. The old adage – you never know if you don’t try -is still true.

It also shows that you never know what can happen if you put in the effort. But it does increase the odds about 100%.
In the words of Seth Godin, Ship it! You’ll either have something to learn and grow from or you’ll succeed.
An editor or agent may love your story.
A novel may ready to be converted into an e-book and posted on Amazon or Smashwords.
So try. Give an effort worthy the task.
Have you been surprised by success before? Tell me your story below.
What an uplifting post. Thanks a lot.
Oh, and where can we find this post you talk of?
That would probably help! I included it as an interlink but never called it out. It was https://parttimenovel.wordpress.com/2015/08/24/should-you-throw-in-the-towel-or-try-harder/. As a caveat I should say it generated great comments the the most comments. I’ve edited the post.
