Authors True Success Defined

What really defines a successful author/writer? This poem sums it up in a nutshell!

A successful author is never boastful

but just tries to inspire others to greatness

never says anything cruel

A successful author is not measured only by how many books that are sold

but by the 100s of wisdom keys told,

by heavenily rewards returning to him three-fold

A successful author breathes a fresh word

never leaves his home empty handed,

an authors without pen and paper is true ly absurd

A successful author is a follow of Christ

doesn't waste time living a fictional life

but takes the time to breath, to mediate, and to write without a price.

This is an authors true success, nothing more nothing less!!!
