I shall not fear
Fear is the mind killer
Fear is the little black death that brings total obliteration
I will face my fear
I will let it run through me
And when fear has gone
I will see its path with my inner
Where there was fear
Only i will remain .
Name the person who wrote this and the title of it.

My mother drew a distinction between achievement and success. she said that achievement is the knowledge that you have studied and worked hard and done the best that is in you. success is being praised by others and thats nice too but not as important or satisfying. always aim for achievement and forget about success.

If so who are some of your favorite characters and why?

I am torn between Nynaeve and Lan AND Faile and Perrin..I guess because I can relate with them..

I can hardly wait for the next book to come out.

Can you please tell me the author of the book, 'Hook, Line and Sinker', and where the author was born?
(In case you need me to be specific, the book is about a girl named Fiona, who has desperately bad luck with boyfriend relationships, and each time the love doesn't work out, she buys a pet fish.)

aim for success not perfection never give up your right to be wrong because then you will lose the ability to learn new things and move forward with your life

if your success is not on your own terms, if it looks good to the world but does not feel good in your heart it is not success at all.

the author is female and she was either crazy, on heroin, or both. She writes about weird dreams she has with lots of symbolism and animals. I think the word "tiger" is in the title

1. I know that publishers won't touch unknown writers and such, but how do I become known? Guys like Stephen King were unknown writers once. And yes, I know that the odds are against me on this (as far as being a famous writer is concerned).

2. Is it really true I have to go to a literary agent to have someone look at my book first?

3. Is it possible to write in two genres? I really like writing in both contemporary fiction and historical fiction.

4. My first idea for a novel is a book about kids in jr. high that are having a tough time fitting in with the in-crowd. People (non-writers) have suggested I make it into a teeny-bopper novel which is NOT my intent at all. I'd much rather write it for all ages (it's also loosely based on personal experience, too). Should I write for who I want to write for?

5. I have a few other ideas for novels; would it be okay if I sketch them out while I'm starting my first book so I don't forget?

Sorry if this is too long.

I'm wondering if anyone can recommend any good literary authors for novelists in fiction who've been published before for a novice author. I'm not ready to submit for publication yet until next year, but I want to practice my query letters. Do I pick one for beginners like in Writer's Market or press my luck with experienced ones? Any good websites for literary agency listings other than PR&E and query letter samples?
