Welcome to GR Cynthia!

I have one, in my opinion, the most important advice: NEVER GIVE UP!

Beginnings are always hard :)

cheers

as I have always said and I repeat now it would be rather than focus on the quantity of work you produce, focus on the quality, no matter how long it takes. Quality work will always take you further ;)

Three important words that will guide you through are ‘Follow Your Passion’.

Five words that will help you to be successful here are ‘Do What You Do Best’.

These will distinguish you from other authors and you will climb faster in no time.

Good luck!

The biggest moment for me was a rejection. Rather than fear of it, get in the “looking forward dealing with it” mood. After that, you’ve got or may have not an Envato Attiutude.
