How to become a writer has one critical step in doing so. How to remain a writer has certain criteria at least that I must live by, to sustain being a writer.
Firstly I was taught this and it changed my life. Just as I loved writing my whole life I easily labelled myself as a broadcast producer for Advertising given my full time career. Not that I didn’t love it just inside I dreamt of being a writer. Another producer was concerned and kind enough to ask me what is on my mind. I expressed my wish to be a writer.
She told me to repeat after me “I Kmberly Gray am a writer” Three times. She paused and asked me if I believed it. I responded ‘absolutely’ Guesswhat she said, “your a writer, now take pride in your dream and never let anyone tell you otherwise.” I asked her what to do next, feeling vulnerable and she simply said “that’s the beauty of being a writer. What happens next is up to you.”
So there I was supposedly a writer, and as you know looking into a black hole wondering your worth the experience or good enough to share it. Regardless, I was a writer.
I quickly and fearlessly learned how to sustain a writers career; accept being broke, cherish the writing community that is so supportive and apparently every moment possible, write, YAHOO!
