I hope you hang in there and stay positive. You've been an inspiration to me since the days you were on Querytracker, and I kept seeing your name in the comments. It sucks that a book deal doesn't equate instant success, and that, as you say, Lady Luck may hold the missing piece to that author dream puzzle, but just remember that it took some well-known writers many years and a big backlist before readers found them. You're already so much further along than most of us. You're so YOUNG! And a published author already with a bright, bright future. I know it's heartbreaking, and now I'm heartbroken for you, but please don't despair.

This is such a beautiful comment and I can't believe I didn't see it until now--thank you, Melissa! 💛
This is just the start of something big and great for you, Swati. Hold on. And yes, do rest and recharge as well. 💖
