Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Nothing.

So today I’m bringing you three recent posts on the topic of persistence in writing. Each article approaches the subject in a slightly different way. All are though-provoking and encouraging.

So if you’re thinking of quitting, read these articles first. You just might change your mind!

• You’ll find some very good advice in “Persistence is Resilience” by Jordan Rosenfeld, author of Make a Scene… Jordan is also an excellent teacher, if you’re looking for a class to improve your craft.
• A great story and “Tips For Writers: On the Importance of Persistence” by Joanna Penn will remind you of what’s important to your growth as a writer.
• But how long do we keep persisting? Try “Proper Persistence for Writers – Or How Long Should I Keep Trying To Get Published?” by Philip Martin for some practical questions to ask yourself.
