Most new novelists don’t fail from lack of talent—they don’t start. You find your way by doing. Writing is hard because it’s vulnerable. The cure is simple: butt in chair, hands on keyboard. Leave things unfinished. Start again tomorrow.

Self-published authors! Does anyone have experience with Kobo Writing Life? It's seems like a great alternative to Kindle and doesn't support Amazon. I'm curious to hear some experiences with using them to publish.
