For me it is finding an inner peace and happiness because without that no other type of success could be as rewarding.

Being able to write when I want, take a day off without having to worry if what's on my desk can wait a day, or having to deal with office politics. While, I'm not successful yet (still have that day job), I'm striving to reach it by writing as much as I can and that makes me happy where I am right now.<br /><br />Love your cover and blurb. Sounds like a great book. Hope you have lots of sales. :o)<br /><br />Katherine<br />Katherineg425@yahoo.comKatherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13752337710626176062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9023937099212820339.post-71114568292682579612012-02-02T16:01:36.530-05:002012-02-02T16:01:36.530-05:00I agree, ladies, happiness is the true measure of ...I agree, ladies, happiness is the true measure of success!Jannine Gallanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17692098634695675967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9023937099212820339.post-80007300737899499592012-02-02T15:57:20.197-05:002012-02-02T15:57:20.197-05:00A thought-provoking post.

Like you, I wish I was making more money (I was just compiling info for tax season and I'm slightly depressed). But it's what makes me happy and as long as I think I'm putting out a good product, and as long as I believe I'm growing as a writer, then I'll keep at it.<br /><br />Best of luck with "Bitterweet".<br /><br />JanaJana Richardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16624650840243322617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9023937099212820339.post-25508267250705004252012-02-02T10:27:59.394-05:002012-02-02T10:27:59.394-05:00Bittersweet sounds like a wonderful book, Jannine....Bittersweet sounds like a wonderful book, Jannine.

If I ever lost the love of writing, I wouldn't do it anymore - but its one of the greatest loves in my life and makes me happy (when it isn't making me crazy!)

Success, to me, is being content no matter what is happening with my life. I lost my job but I have my book store and my writing. I lost my medical insurance but I have my health. I lost my son-in-law in a car accident 6 years ago, but I have the beautiful Granddaughter that he gave my daughter. I don't have much but what I've got is success!<br /><br />Cheers!<br />jena_galifany@yahoo.comJenaGalifanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03870378425016427004noreply@blogger.com
