You've Made It As A Writer When....

How would you answer that question, fellow writers? Are you in it for the money (ha!), the fame (double-ha!), your name on the book cover?

I shared my 'Made It Moment' with Jenny Milchman, and it wasn't about any of those things... Check it out here.

What's yours?

  1. I'm always a bit gobsmacked when someone actually pays me for something I've written.

  3. I really like your "Made It" moment, Fleur. While we may say "I'll know I made it when I'm a Jeopardy! question" or "When Russell Crowe is starring in the film version" the truth is that made-it moments will surprise you. It'll be some business-as-usual moment and you're like: Whoa. I'm an author.

  4. Getting paid is nice too :-) And you're right, Jenny: it's those unexpected moments that do it.

  5. Hasn't happened yet. I'll let you know. Whoops, see even that wasn't original!
