"You must keep sending work out; you must never let a manuscript do nothing but eat its head off in a drawer. You send that work out again and again, while you're working on another one. If you have talent, you will receive some measure of success - but only if you persist."
Isaac Asimov (1920 - 1992)
Fine, inspiring words, but I wonder if they still apply today when the publishing world is SO hard to break into. Of course authors now have the option to self-publish in a quality and economy that Asimov probably never envisioned, so perhaps the game really HAS changed... I don't know.
I would LIKE to know as I still wait to hear back from a half a dozen publishers about Lunatics...
