Failure and time and success in writing.

Recently, on Twitter, someone with access to a database looked up how many books writers generally last in the industry for. Over 80% of published authors quit within 3 books. And that’s published authors — that’s not counting all of the thousands or even millions of aspiring authors out there. Only about 10% of published authors make it to six books. And only 5% make it to twelve.
