I must confess that 2011 has truly been a challenging year for me as a writer and I'm certain many more would agree with me. The goal to remain focus and stay the course to write until the project is complete has been tough, but I managed to finally pull through and complete my novel titled "Guilty Feet".
It's quite difficult at times trying to find balance and making time to market your products as well. One mistake that I have learned in my marketing approach is that a "book will not sell itself". You have to network by making connections and keeping them informed about your projects and future projects as well. It helps to join a local writer's support group as well.
It's easy to get discouraged at times in life, but just remember that success doesn't come easily. Just remember to put a great deal of time, effort and determination to achieve your life goals and you will be successful.

I do agree with you. For me, though I wasn't writing a book, I was writing my Master's Thesis and it's been so difficult just trying to focus and get it done. I never imagined it would be this hard. But thankfully, I'm finally done and looking forward to graduating.
