Reality

I published my first book more than a year ago. Like many aspiring writers, I was convinced that from that moment on, my life as an author would begin. I dreamed about it for years. However, I quickly realized that I was wrong and painfully faced reality. It turns out that the world of books is very complicated, mercilessly crushing naive dreams, a huge conglomerate of money. 

Every author dreams that he’s books will be bought and loved by readers all over the world. True. However, there are millions of such writers and even more books. How to find your reader? How do I let the world know that I've written a good book that's really worth your attention? How to beat the army of giant competition? How not to give up and continue to achieve your goals? 

Such and similar questions have become a part of my every day. In the mornings, I get out of bed thinking that another day has dawned when I will change my destiny and show the world that I am worth it. Then, in the evening, I go to sleep again, calming myself with thoughts of a better tomorrow. And so every day.

 I have to admit that many times I was going to give up and throw my dreams in the trash, but some strange voice in my head tells me to go further and fight even harder. So, I smile again at my arrogant fate and travel to fight on. Will I ever give up? I don't think so. Living for your dreams is more interesting. I know that even if I do not realize all my dreams, the path I will follow will not only be long and difficult, but also very rich.

 So, my dear passengers, let's ignore the thorn fences and potholes, let's go forward with confidence and one day we will remember this journey as one of the most wonderful adventures in life.
