My work! My luck! My work! My luck! (apologies to CHINATOWN...)

Meeting yesterday's NaNo word count goal was like pulling teeth. 1,667 teeth.  But, done!  (1704 teeth, in fact.)  So today's tidbit is in the "the harder I work, the luckier I get" vein.  Here's looking forward to the luck.

My experience is you always get lucky if you’re willful enough about it. I discovered when I was in my twenties, and I started trying to make work, that if I would spend even more hours on it, luck would kick in on some story. And then you have to be ready to throw stuff out, too. You’re making room for the better stuff that’s going to come.
