Cintia asked C.C. Hunter:

I'm an aspiring writer, but I'm dealing with two things: I get discouraged every single day because 96% of manuscripts are rejected, and I haven't had an idea for years, literally. There's too many people wanting to be writers, and knowing there's so much competition just kills me a little every day. When I get motivated, immediatly something appears about the industry that kills it. Any tips on how to deal with this?

C.C. Hunter I understand completely, but the business of writing is always changing. Writers have always complained about the market, the publishers, etc. My advice? Just write! Don't pay any attention to all that. Write the best book you can write. I literally have thousands of rejection letters. It didn't stop me. If it's what you are determined to do for a career, don't let anything stop you. I didn't, and I was told to give up over and over. Good luck!
