Goodreads asked Brooke May:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Brooke May Don't give up! Sometimes it can be hard. For me, writing the story was the easy part. Finding a good editor, formatter, cover artist, and weighing on your options of self-publishing or not can be a lot of work. But if it is your dream, work for it.

Write for yourself, don't write just because you want to make money. 'My Cowboy' has been out since February and I have sold just a hand full of ebooks, but that doesn't matter to me. Seeing something I worked hard on and for published fills me with joy. I know there will be people that don't like my book and that's fine. I didn't do it for others, well maybe my sons, but overall I did it for myself.
