This could be the author’s law… it trumps all other laws/tips/tricks I can give you.

Simply put Wheaton’s Law is this:

“Don’t be a dick!”

This applies to everything you do in your professional and online life. Tempted to moan about all the rejections you’re getting? See Wheaton’s Law.

Want to cuss out the agent that said no to your manuscript? Once agin, take a look at Wheaton’s Law. Not only will this save you some embarresment, it will make your chances of getting published that much better.

Why?

Do you want to work with someone who breaks Wheaton’s Law?
