Welcome!

Welcome to the writing wars blog! I began this blog because, as a new writer, it really feels as though I am fighting a war to understand the world of writing. I am just beginning to learn the process of what it takes to get your writing actually published. I was naive in the beginning because I thought that it would be so easy. Those are rare stories that you hear in which someone writes a perfect manuscript, finds an agent, sells the book, and it becomes a NY Times bestseller (all in a year). I know that I had read how difficult it could be but no one ever thinks it will happen to them. I am writing this in the hopes of helping someone else that find themselves in the same place as me.
