Writing Is A Business

I need to start thinking like a business owner.  As a business owner I need to think of April 15, 2012.

Tax Time.  I am saving all my reciepts and placing them in an envelope.

I bought stamps, ink, pens, calendars.  I saved all the reciepts and put them in the envelope/

I also plan on making an appointment with my tax guy to give him the heads up on what I am doing, so when I do go and get my taxes done next year he will be prepared for me.

So it is never to early to start looking for a tax perparer.  Someone who you trust and know what they are doing.

As you are writing and being creative, make sure when you are spending money you are thinking as a business owner.  You will be wearing many hats once you are published.

If you are self published it is all on you...Someone gave me this advice.

Don't get the IRS mad at you.  Pay your taxes first.

I am going to listen to that advice.

Calling all Self Published Authors

I would love to hear your stories.

1.  Why you chose to be self published

2.  How did you chose where to publish

3.  Are you computer savvy

4.  What are you doing to market your book?

Write No Matter What

I woke up and felt like a truck hit me.  I still turned my computer on and started writing.  That is the only way the story is going to get written.  Do I feel like writing?  Nope.  Do if feel like Blogging?  Nope.  I write cause that is what I do.  So I poured me a soda and let the caffine take its effect.  I have to get ready for work in a bit, I blooged, I wrote a bit, so I am still going in the write direction. I write no matter what.  whether I feel like  it or not. Have a great day. http://sharonleejohnson.com/

Get that Book Published

USA UK Denmark Asia FREE On Kindle Unlimited Write no matter what anyone says.  We all have a story to tell.  If you are a writer, your friends and family might get why you write.  I know that my family does not get me at all.  They just roll their eyes and ignore the fact that I am now a self-published writer.  They don't care.  So I don't talk about my writing to them.  Why waste my time. Instead, I write.  I might not write 2,000 words everyday.  What I do everyday is, I write.  I write and it might only be 100 words, but I wrote something. I blog and I consider that writing.  I have people come to my blog everyday.  People are reading what I write, like you are reading what I have written, therefore I am a writer.   I know that it is lonely sometimes and you wonder why bother.  I write to live.  I can not write. You can be a self-published writer in less than a mont...
