Did you help me?

by Victoria Whithear
3rd September 2016

At long last I have uploaded the first in my series to Kindle. There are seven books in the series and they aren't all edited to my satisfaction so there is still a way to go, but there are people here who gave me a lot of support over the years and I just wanted to tell you all I really relied on your kind words at times and if you were among those who helped me keep focus, thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

I would never have imagined that when I started to write this story exactly ten years ago that it would become such a huge part of my life, a part I am immensely proud of. I've been studying science for the last two years so I have less time to devote to my series, but I never leave it alone completely and holidays are devoted to the eventual completion of all seven books.

If you are fighting your way through a series, keep at it. It's the most rewarding thing you can do as a writer. It's hard work and the end is nearly always like a pin-prick of light you keep losing sight of mid-tunnel, but I don't think the sense of achievement can be matched.

Thanks again to all,

Vicki

Congrats!

I didn't help you (I wasn't on here back when you were active [I've been getting an idea of HOW active by reading old threads]), but I'm happy for you.

Hey! Now that you're [about to become] famous... and [maybe] have a LITTLE bit of extra time, now that the first goal has been scored, how about some relaxing fun and games at https://www.writersandartists.co.uk/question/view/2644 ? (You should read https://www.writersandartists.co.uk/question/view/2645 too, before contributing.)

We'll be able to boast "With participation by VICTORIA WHITHEAR!" :)
