trying not to think about how the publishing market in australia is dead for fantasy novels and to get sales i should submit the manuscript to a british/american agent but if thats the case what the fuck is the point of me doing uni in aus and trying to network and if it gets good sales on the other side of the world how the fuck am i even gonna interact with it or help promote it when i live in AUSTRALIA

#i go to the best uni in the country but it’s literally going to get me jackshit #being a successful author is literally half luck and the rest a mix of pre existing fame and talent #just finish the book first just finish the book first just finish the book forst fuckkkk #all my backup plan jobs are jobs i hate 💀 i barely even like writing but i’d do it either as a job or a hobby so might as well get paid #dont get me started how most of the writing competitions here exploit identity trauma-#-bcuz those are the only pieces that get rewarded 😭 so twisted and sick hate this lyfeeee #like wdym i also have to do social media marketing for my own works?? thats a WHOLE OTHER JOB WHAT THE FUCK #how am i supposed to do anything else then 🧍‍♀️#being a reader is so much more fun than being a writer. this is such a flop.#not hp #rant #flop era #rewriting
