					<description><![CDATA[ï»¿I rarely comment, but after browsing a few of the remarks here How Long Will It Take? &#124; Rachelle Gardner. I do have 2 questions for you if it&#039;s allright. Could it be simply me or does it appear like some of the remarks appear like they are left by brain dead people? :-P And, if you are writing on other online social sites, I would like to keep up with you. Would you post a list of all of all your shared sites like your linkedin profile, Facebook page or twitter feed?]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&gt;That&#039;s why it&#039;s so important to write from our passion. Because if we don&#039;t how are we going to market our book a year or eighteeen months later? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If it&#039;s not our favorite thing, we might be tempted to let our new release set to the back burner. I believe the fire is just getting started when the book hits the shelves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As writers, we have to keep the momentum going and passion is the key for me. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It&#039;ll carry me through when the waiting and writing seems so long and hard.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&gt;Thanks, Rachelle, for sharing some of the inside scoop! It&#039;s interesting to also note the difference between royalty contracts and work-for-hire contracts. My picture book (royalty contract) which I wrote 3 years ago recently hit the shelves but I probably won&#039;t see a check for that for a year or so until the advance is paid up. But I just finished a work-for-hire book this month and the contract says I&#039;ll get paid in 30 days. I guess this is why some authors like to have a balance of both kinds of contracts so they can get actual cash in their hands while they&#039;re waiting for the royalties to kick in.]]></description>
