Wow, I hope that's true. I've been working for over five years on my world and my novel, and I've paid out for my manuscript to be edited (which is no mean feat when you have hardly any money), and I'd like to think that, with every day I spend on it, and with every redraft I've done and will do, my work is improving.


Of course, as you, John, and most other professionals say, it's also about luck and timing.
