A few weeks ago, I heard that a golfer won the British open after trying for 20 years. Since I am not really into golf, I have not real details there and i apologize to all you golfers out there, but I definitely celebrated for that golfer. It takes tenacity to go for your dreams. They don’t materialize over night.
A couple of friends of mine have a critique partner who just sold her first book after seven years of writing and submitting. That’s a long time to hang in there! Here’s her story on her blog:

CONGRATS, Anita! And congrats to all of you out there pursuing your dreams as you wait for those dreams to come true.
