I’ve loved writing for darn near all my life. Only recently (well, in the last few years anyway) have I decided to make a living as a writer. Every small success I make has been possible only because others have shared what they knew, and I listened.
I’m really a beginner. I’m not ready to give up even my little part-time job yet in order to freelance exclusively, but every day I’m a little closer. I’ve learned a lot, and I have a lot to learn. I want to share my continued journey with others, so that hopefully they can learn with me or from me. Even if they only learn what not to do. It’s important to me to give back to the endless pool of shared knowledge that inspires and encourages me.
If you’re breaking into the writing business too, and you’re not afraid to take some chances, make some mistakes, take the unglamorous assignments, and write in the wee hours, then you’re on the same path as me. Let’s travel together.
