Falling on your face in job you are trained for is difficult. I know. I have been there and done that. It may be best thing that ever happened to you. You may find something you like even better.

Experience definitely helps, but it’s not everything. Having a talent for what, your doing can make up for lack of training and experience. Whether or not you succeed, depends largely on how hard and how smart you work.

The first thing you need to do is to enlarge your vision. We get so use to our own job and problems that we forget that our little space is just a tiny part of this world. Before you can improve your lot in life, you have to make room for it in your thinking.

There is life beyond job you have or just lost. There are so many possibilities that it can stagger your imagination. Many hold themselves back from good things in life by their limited vision. Open your eyes, believe in yourself. Go out there and grab your share of pie!

If an Internet business is not for you, keep trying. It’s no disgrace to lose a job, it’s only a disgrace if you give up. We all have to search for place where we fit. Sometimes most brilliant fails because they are like a square peg in a round hole. Your niche is out there. You will find it. It is easier to find a job when you have one, so keep what you have until you find something better.

If you are struggling to keep your head above water in an internet business, get help from someone that is successful. Believing hype about easy money you see on internet is like asking a fat doctor for advice on losing weight.

Start writing a newsletter and get an autoresponder, so that you can follow up by auto pilot. Investigate some good affiliate programs you can belong to. Ask someone in business what they recommend. You can make it if you keep learning and applying to your action.

Q: How long did it take you to write it?

A: The idea and sketches come instantly, but it takes me some time, a month or longer to create a proper copy.

Q: What about other e books on your site? There are some non fiction ones.

A: Yes, first one is Writing Basics, a how-to book for new writers. It includes articles that will help new writers come to grips with internet and shows them how to get published fast. It is a mini guide that contains a market research as well. The second one is Flowers for Women, an anthology of true stories dedicated to women worldwide. The contributors’ stories are inspiring and positive and will entertain all readers, not only women.

Q: Tell us about your new book.

A: The Hostel is a novel set in London, UK, in early 70s. Apart from social issues story seeks to highlight, such as age difference between a couple and prejudice and discrimination of other cultures, it is an old fashioned subtle romance that includes historical elements of that time and shows lifestyle of a part of residents as well. The main character is Nina, a girl in her late teenage years , who fights against odds to keep her first love alive. Readers can read an excerpt of story at http://lianametal.tripod.com/thehostel

Q: Who is it aimed for?

A: I would suggest that Young Adults category is appropriate, but I think that adults can find it entertaining as well, especially those who remember 70s, or those who can identify themselves with characters of story.

Q: Have you any suggestions for new writers?

A: Never give up! I was very discouraged every time I got a rejection, but I went on writing and then I got published. If writing makes you happy, you will find a way to do it, no matter how busy you are. Writing is an addiction for life.
