What do you hink of my story?

It's very, very, very, very hard to become an author. I've wanted to be an author since I was 15 and I'm 35. I've received dozens and dozen and dozens of rejection letters from small time magazines to big name companies like Bataam Del Rey and Harper and so on. I forget. I threw most of them out. It is like wanting to be a rock star or a movie star. For every one million that want the job only 100 get it out of those one million. Like wanting to be a big time artist. Have a back up plan such as being the editor of a magazine or a journalist instead if you do not make it into the big time as an author. Seems pretty good though. A lot better than the crap I write. Why not go for it?
