Writing a book is like climbing a small mountain. It is tough, challenging. It takes time and a great deal of effort. When you finally make it to the top, all you want to do is plant a flag, rest your weary bones on the nearest available boulder and pop the Prosecco!

Unfortunately, that is when you find out that writing your book was just like making it to base camp. You still had Everest to climb!
A naive, newbie novelist, I was about to set off on the next stage of my author’s journey on the path to publication.

Your drawing is amazing and very accurate!

Can’t agree with you more. Imagine my surprise when I realised that actually finishing the book—or even publishing—was just the start of the journey. Anyway, thanks for this post, Sarah!
