Nerves

A Closed Mouth is out in the world and doing well. As a new author, I hoped for instant success. I wanted to be on all of the bestseller lists in the first week. Then reality hit, and I realized that no one knew me. It’s not like I had a huge publishing house behind my name pushing my book. No, it’s me, my family and friends, and the kindness of strangers spurring on book sales. It’s scary, to say the least because only I know the level of work that went into publishing my work.

I’m hopeful that A Closed Mouth will become a bestselling novel. I’m sure I will see a surge in sales soon.

Until then, I will continue to sing, “Go, Little Rockstar!!”

Sincerely,

Lauryn
