“I have wanted to write a book since I was a teenager. I remember sitting at the desk in my bedroom with my powder-blue plastic Smith Corona manual typewriter in front of me. I was ready. But then I realized that I had no idea what to write about, so I went back downstairs and watched Luke and Laura’s wedding on General Hospital. But I digress. About 40 years have passed, and I still haven’t written a book. I publish my stories on Medium using an outdated MacBook Air, which at least is a step up from a manual typewriter. But as far as my progress with writing a book, I am stagnating. I’m afraid that I will finally write my book, and it will suck.”
The second one from an anonymous reader inspires especially aspiring writers to consider this opportunity.
“For all those who’ve jumped the gun and started typing their first chapters into the laptop, you’ve got to understand a few things: And it goes back to the same problem of editors having a limited amount of time. No amount of frenzied typing is going to get around this problem. I’m not an editor, but I’ve done some editing for a couple of the big names here on ILLUMINATION. So I can pretty well guess that they just are not going to take submissions that have half-thought-out plots. And grammar errors? I just don’t believe they’ll have the time to even consider those kinds of stories. As a matter of fact, it’s likely they won’t even look at the first chapters of newbie authors before seeing a fairly well-developed outline of what the book is going to be about. I think you young authors should understand the realities of the time-pressure the ILLUMINATION editors are under.”
Thank you for reading these great chapters.
