#published

If you want to write, write it. That's the first rule. And send it in, and send it in to someone who can publish it or get it published. Don't send it to me. Don't show it to your spouse, or your significant other, or your parents, or somebody. They're not going to publish it. ↗

And books that were published in much larger numbers than Selfish, Little are hard to find. And publishers who wanted to publish my last few works have them stuck in limbo while new distribution ideas and legal issues and fears are blown away. ↗

I still feel the impulse to give young writers a hearing, and I believe I have played more unpublished compositions than any other band leader in the country. ↗

Pluto will always be a planet in my book. That’s because my book was published before Pluto was blacklisted by planetary scientists.
