Blog: My New Hero

So I'm doing a bit of research for a story and I come across this quote by the 17th century mathmatician and philosopher Rene Descartes:

"You just keep pushing. You just keep pushing. I made every mistake that could be made. But I just kept pushing."

I'm not entirely certain of the context here, but from the POV of a writer, this is fantastic stuff. He knew then what people are still trying to figure out today. Persistence is key to achieving anything in your life, especially getting published.

Descartes is so my new hero. I'm going to pretty up that little quote and post it in my writing space as additional motivation.
