Thanks all – I am so inspired by J.C. and his story keeps me going when I wonder if the time input is all worth it. As authors we all strive for that type of success so it’s great when there are footprints we can follow in.

This is a very inspiring story. J.C has followed the “reverse route” to monetizing his work, giving it away free first, and its great this has worked out for him. Of course, his level of passion and belief in his work helps .

This is a great encouragement for all of us that are fairly new to the published world. It is good to see another that has persevered through the difficult and almost strangling period to make it through successfully.
I look forward to hearing more.

I learned about J.C. through Mur Lafferty and her I Should Be Writing podcast. I think it’s SO important to remember that “not giving up” includes, in many ways, moving on. Sure, J.C. had faith in the 7th Son series, but if he’d STOPPED THERE, he’d have been sunk! He moved on to other projects, and his body of a work as a whole contributed to 7th Son finally getting the publication he’d hoped for from the outset.
