Being an author comes with a lot of rejection: rejections from agents and editors.

Even if you self publish, you still have to deal with criticism. Can’t please everyone.

Luckily, I’ve got middle-grade author Eileen Schnabel on the show today to talk about keeping a positive mindset so you can keep on writing. Keeping on keeping on is the only way to produce the wonderful work that only you can do!

Have a listen below…and be sure to check out her cool new book about time travel and the Revolutionary War.

About Eileen:

Eileen Schnabel had taught law for ten years when she wandered into a local cemetery and spotted the grave of a soldier who’d served under George Washington. Thinking of the hardships of Valley Forge and the sacrifices of those early soldiers, she wondered if modern Americans still had the grit to fight the Revolutionary War. To answer that question, she sent four kids back in time to Boston, 1775, to take Paul Revere’s midnight ride, hang the famous lanterns at Old North Church, and rescue John Hancock and Samuel Adams from hanging as traitors to the crown.
