A Writer's Life


That is me.  Not to glamours.  I so proud of this book.  I wrote this book and I self-published this book.  I did not have a book signing.  I did not have a glamours book party.  I am a writer.  I wrote a book.  Did anyone care?   My boyfriend who took this picture cared.  He was impressed that I wrote a book and learned to self-published.

My family and co-workers did not care. 

No one cares if I write or don't write.  Their world will not be effected if I don't write.

So why do I write?

I live to write.  I do not have a choice of writing or not writing.  I have to write.  Ever since I learned the ABC's I was writing short stories.  I have been rejected by every major publisher in New York. 

At one time, I packed away all my writing. Notebooks, legal pads, and writing books, stashed them in a closet.  I did not want to write.  I wanted to lay on the couch, eat chips and dip and watch tv after work.  No more writing for me.

Then I would scour the house for a pen and paper to write an idea or thought down.  Soon I had all these pieces of paper with scribble on them.

I dragged my notebooks and legal pads out.  I started writing again.  My hiatus did not last long, probably not even a week.

I am a writer.  I have over 50 E-Books on Amazon.  Don't Believe me?  Check out My Amazon Author Page 

Yes I am a Zombie Writer.  Yes I am a Christian and have written a few Non-Fiction Books with my walk with GOD.  Check out my Blog

Now I am working on a 4 Book Series The Way.....I am also writing my Memoir about my Suicidal Past and how Jesus healed me.

I have a lot going on in my head.  I guess that is part of being a writer.

I am always writing.  I am living a Writer's Life.

In 3 months I am quitting my job and am going to stay home and write, along with raising chickens and planting a garden this summer.  So I am will be concentrating on Blogging also.

So if you write....You have a Writer's Life.  It does not matter if you have support from anyone.  You have a story to tell and only you can tell that story.  So write that story, whether it is a memoir of part of your life or a fiction story that only you can tell.

I can not run from being a writer.  I am embracing my ideas that run through my thoughts and writing them down. 

I like being a writer.  I am living a writer's life.  Are 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

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/
