The very same advice I was given many years ago... DO NOT RUSH THE PROCESS - ENJOY THE JOURNEY!
There is a lot that happens between creating the story and publication - don't try to push ahead to the end, therefore missing some very important things.

Join writers' groups - join critique groups and GROW a very thick skin - cause it's a brutal world we write in. lol(less)

E.M. Bounds
“It is not great talents nor great learning nor great preachers that God needs, but men great in holiness, great in faith, great in love, great in fidelity, great for God -- men always preaching by holy sermons in the pulpit, by holy lives out of it.”
E.M. Bounds, Power Through Prayer

C.S. Lewis
“To be a Christian means to forgive the inexcusable because God has forgiven the inexcusable in you.”
C.S. Lewis

Mahatma Gandhi
“Prayer is not asking. It is a longing of the soul. It is daily admission of one's weakness. It is better in prayer to have a heart without words than words without a heart.”
Mahatma Gandhi

E.M. Bounds
“We have emphasized sermon-preparation until we have lost sight of the important thing to be prepared—the heart. A prepared heart is much better than a prepared sermon. A prepared heart will make a prepared sermon.”
E.M. Bounds, Power Through Prayer
