Plotting on the Low
As I read the literary works of authors like Jodi Picoult, Eric Weber, Kwan, etc. it makes me realize the importance of always striving to perfect your craft. So in the midst of preparing for the launch of #AFashionableRevelation, I have decided to further my education through Creative Writing courses. I don't aspire to be merely a good writer, I aspire to be the best. So, I will continue to plot my course according to my future aspirations. Just because you see me in the club asking for water, so I can roll harder, doesn't mean that I am not constantly strategizing to become the next big author.
Schemin on the Low
And with my status bar set higher than most, I realize that it will take more than greatness to make Tonia the Author a household name. I can admit than I am outspoken amongst my group of friends, but I am shy when it comes to being placed in a room of unfamiliar faces. It seems that every big author started off pushing books out of their trunks, but I shy away at the idea of being rejected or turned away from a potential customer. However, I realize that a closed mouth will not get fed, so I am finally ready to put on my big girl panties and open my mouth to sell this dream of mine. Men do it all the time, and I can guarantee that I can offer a better product than most of them are pushing. ;)
The Furthest Thing from Perfect (Like Everyone I Know)
As delusional as I am (that's what makes me a great writer), I still recognize that I am just as flawed as the next individual. Yet, even with all of my imperfections and insecurities, I am on the way to living my dreams. And the reality is that whether I am loved or hated, I will be recognized and remembered for being the great writer that I am destined to become......June 29th (Book Release Day) will always be a day to remember, and nothing has been the same since .....

I like the way you encourage yourself...I can hear it in your blogs...you have resigned yourself to your fate....i cannot hear failure in your words...I can see the grunts of your efforts in your words.. you are really working hard at this...So with that you will never be a failure...and to me you are already one of the biggest winners in history, because you believe in yourself...and i know you wont let yourself down....keep grinding...stay hungry....stay focused...Paul
