The greatest lesson, one I've tried to implement daily and also pass along to my grown children is what I call "Yellow Pad Philosophy, when worried write down all the things you are thankful at that time, then your worries look small indeed. That is my feeling about this current condition in publishing. I've finished my novel, had it edited, read by industry professionals, and took the time to think about all the joys in writing and now in pursuing a publisher. My yellow pad is full, my future is bright and I look forward to the next bend in the road. Thanks again for your wisdom and insight. I wish more in the industry in which we toil had the same outlook.
