This guest post at Chuck Wendig's blog, written by Kameron Hurley, will be of interest to some. She talks about her path as a writer, dealing with the inevitable rejections, and, of course, being persistent. http://terribleminds.com/ramble/2014/01/22/on-persistence-and-the-long-con-of-being-a-successful-writer/
i'm curious... how does becoming a writer equate with a 'long con'--which is a certain type of 'confidence game' intended to swindle someone out of something? who's being conned by whom?
