Fighting against becoming a writer who hates writing
You look like a new person- hi there! Thanks for reading. This site is where I vent about having an invisible disability as well as cancer. Please consider sharing this post because it’s really helpful in my shift to a writing career. Welcome back! Please tell share this post or consider buying me a cup of coffee because it will help me continue to pay bills while I shift to a part time writing career. I don’t write because I want to- and sometimes, I really DO want to. But that’s not why. I write because I absolutely have to. Not writing, to me, is like asking me to hold my breath. I’m sure I could do it for a minute or so, but at some point, even if I was underwater, I’d no longer be able to fight that instinct to take a deep, huge, breath. And now writing is tied to my income. One of the reasons I picked web marketing as a career in 2002, after 4 years making money from efforts more directly related to my writing, was that I could see how closely writing would be related to everything. As early as 2000, I theorized that if even if the web became like TV, we’d need people to write the scripts, the commercials, the communications between people behind the scenes. In my dream if I knew how to get people to read what I wrote, then I could write forever. It was a sound prediction.
