Just keep typing. And don’t complain about the odds. Your pulp forebears wouldn’t like that. They’d have a message for you. •You don’t know how good you’ve got it compared to our day! You can publish yourself, to a virtually unlimited market! Man, what we wouldn’t have given for that! •If you don’t write to a quota, I have no sympathy for you. •If you don’t pay at least some attention to the market, I think you’re daft. •If you don’t try to get better at your craft, you’d be better off as a plumber, and the sooner the better. •If you want to make it, keep working. And the work never stops!
