Mistakes, I've Made a Few

I'll be at the Frankfort Public Library tomorrow night (Illinois, not Kentucky or Germany), doing my program, "How I Kept My Day Job and Became a Published Author—and You Can, Too!" Joe Vince of FrankfortPatch asked me to share "Five Mistakes Writers Make Getting Published" and I said, "Only five?!"

Just kidding. Five is more than enough to worry about when you're just starting out. And none of us make the same mistakes in quite the same way, either.
