Weekly Writerly Witterings ~ 2K per day Challenge

If you read the post I shared recently, you know how I feel about the changes in the self-publishing industry. I feel like some of us get lucky and are able to rise above the rest. But most of us struggle for the sake of the craft (though money really would be nice). I write because I love telling stories and I love a good challenge.
