Hope?

I was reading around, articles, stories etc. when I found this. Being very very interested in creative writing and dreaming about the day I can get something published (very, very futile dream, or so I thought...) it was so refreshing to read something like this. In our world today, there are hundreds upon hundreds of great, even brilliant authors. For aspiring ones to have that kind of talent to look up to is amazing, but also a little intimidating. You've got to admit, the market today is extremely competitive and originality can be hard to find. However, the whole point of writing is to get your thoughts and feelings across. If you give up on those then what's the point of dreaming to be published? This is exactly what this article is all about. Don't give up, because you never know when you're going to be spotted. Personally, I know how hard it is to stick with an idea, for me at least. I must have started tens of stories, fanfictions and whatnot, but I never follow through, that's my problem! It's either, 'I'm too busy' or 'This really sucks!' or something else. Well, all I can say now is that I'll try my best to stick with my ideas, no matter how long it takes.
