I, like many hopeful writers, dream of one day publishing my work and earning the title "Author". If sharing my story in this blog can help even one person out in their journey then it is worth it. To be honest I'm also hoping it will help keep me accountable and moving forward. If you read this blog you'll see that I fell victim to many of the pitfalls that starting writers fall into, and I'm sure I'll fall into more along the way.
(For instance I just used the word 'that' twice in one sentence where it wasn't needed. Doesn't this sound better? "If you read this blog you'll see I fell victim to many of the pitfalls starting writers fall into...". One of many little lessons I learned along the way. I'll post them as I come across them.)
At the writing of this post I am an unsuccessful self-published author without an agent (Ouch, that kinda hurt to admit).
I know the date of this entry says differently, but I'm starting this blog on January 30th, 2011. I'm putting this entry first because I want it to act as an introduction and to let readers know entries leading up to today are estimated dates and are going off of what I remember. Entries after today are posted shortly after they happen, hopefully, if I can keep up the blog that is. I've fallen away from writing in the past, let's hope it doesn't happen again.
