And how to avoid them!

I hang out on twitter primarily for the writer community. It can be a lot of fun, but it’s also a learning experience.

For one thing, I encounter quite a few newer writers who have come into “the business” with unrealistic expectations.

Unfortunately, they’re setting themselves up for disappointment.

I know. I’ve made many of these mistakes myself.

So I thought I’d list a few of the ways that writers inadvertently sabotage themselves. Hopefully this will help us avoid at least some of the bumps in the road that we encounter as we write, share, and publish our novels.
