Writing For Love or Money

Why do you write?

1.  For money
2.  To show the world that I am not stupid and am a writer.
3.  To sell a million books.
4.  To have a book signing in New York City and people are lined up around the block for my book.
5.  To hold a copy of my book in my hand.
6.  To tell my story.
7.  To spread The Gospel throughout the world.
8.  To shut the characters up that are screaming in my head.
9.  Because I am a writer.
10.  I live to write and I write to live.

Those are 10 reasons why I write.  I don't write for money.  Though I did quit my job to write and blog.  It has been 4 months since I quit my job.  I wrote one book and published it.  I am working on the Print Version now, waiting for my second Proof Copy, and to double check every word and comma.

I learned to type on a manual underwood typewriter.  I have been rejected by magazines and the best publishing houses in New York City.  I would still be writing if I could not self- publish.  Now I can self-publish, so nothing is stopping me.  The sky is the limit.  I can write what I want and publish when I want to. 

So I wrote the ME VS Zombies Series


I can write any genre I want.  Horror, Religious, Non-Fiction

Now I am writing a Fiction Series, The Way.  About living in the Last Days Before The Rapture. 

So why do you write?
What are your 10 Reasons to Write?
Do you write for Love or Money?
There is no right or wrong answer.

Does not matter what country you live in.  We all have a story to tell.  Tell your story, publish your story and send it out into the world.  Someone is waiting to Read your story.

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/
