How you interact with others will have a HUGE impact on your careers
- Join your first writing group ASAP and join as many as you can
- Find other authors who might help you
- Go to Writers conferences – You can meet people who can help you. They might tell you where a conference is and you may meet someone there (agent publisher)
- Remember, you will get a lot of useless information
- But also remember, you will get some great information as well.
