Just Write!

Want to be a Published Author?

1.  Write.

If you don't write, you will never get published.  I know that may sound simple.  I know you have heard that before.  It is the only thing you need to get publish.  You need a story to publish.

I had a hard time writing 100 words a day.  I then started writing everyday, even if it was one word or one sentence or 1,000 words.  I discovered the more I wrote, the easier it was to write.  Like anything else, it takes practice.

I now write everyday.  In longhand or on the computer.  I write wherever or whenever.  In the car, waiting for a doctor appointment, at work, on my breaks.  I carry a notebook everywhere I go. 

My goal was to be a published writer and that is what I am.  That is what I am doing.  So can you.  What is stopping you from seeing your dream become a reality?  It is you.  You are the only one stopping you.

Writing When Sick

I didn't feel good the last two days.  I slept a lot, but I was still thinking about my writing.  I did sit on the couch with my laptop and did some writing, though that I know that I need to do rewrite, but I did write.  Today I feel better and hopefully I will get more pages into the computer.  I started the rewrite of a novel that has been rejected 20 times and I will get it back on the market. So that I it.  I am going to start writing and get this done. What are you working on??? This is a new year.....New Beginning. Let us follow our dream together check out my other blog: http://iamwalkingwithgod.blogspot.com/ Write Something Today

Don't Be Scammed

This is my number one pet peeve on being self published.  There are people, website, and courses out there, that want your money. THINK BEFORE YOU SPEND! There are websites out there that will charge you for services that you can learn to do yourself.  If you don't want to learn these things that is fine, pay for it.  But if the reason that you are paying for services is because you don't t think you can, you are totally wrong. I have said this before and I am saying it again.  I knew nothing when I started in 2011,  I had a computer.  I had no idea how to send a file via e-mail. I had no idea what to do one I got the file back from the formatter.  How do I get it uploaded on Amazon.  I had no idea that I had more than one drive on the computer.  I downloaded a file and had no idea where it went. If you are thinking that you can not learn this.  I am proof you can learn if you set your mind to it and are willing to learn. Don't...
