It’s hard enough for writers to keep going in the pursuit of crafting the perfect story. When the people around us are not supportive, it can make us feel downright hopeless.
Sometimes when we attempt to explain what we’re trying to achieve it makes it worse. We’re belittled and patronized.
Aw, what a nice hobby!
Do you make any money from it?
Then why do you do it?
You do not have to explain yourself to these types of people. They are too scared to chase their own dreams and are projecting their fear onto you.
Haters gonna hate. Don’t waste your breath justifying yourself. Use their doubt to spur you on.
Then turn them into an annoying character in your next book.
Happy Writing!
