About three years ago I
joined a writer’s critique group and learned to endure critique of my writing. I learned to not answer back at the wrong time,
branding myself as a novice.
When
I decided to write a novel and few people had encouraging words for me. After all,
people who write novels know how to write
don’t they? They are well read aren’t they?
It is uncommon to write and finish a novel. I can say nary a soul believed it possible in my
case. It proved to be a lonely leisure time pursuit but, I had time and full coverage with Blue Cross which has been a great return on my money.
Now I have four novels in my hard drive in various degrees of
completion. But most important, I have a
vision and a firm goal that they will be written and published. The time frame
is not clear but the method is coming into view like land appears to a sailor long lost at sea who will not give up. One
thing life has taught me, nothing is impossible when you believe. Call it
Faith.
Some people have told me there is no such thing. I can prove
there is such a thing and have to my satisfaction. What you do with the
universe is your choice.
Now that has been made clear, nothing is impossible, I have
devoted my time to discovering what is worthy of such a powerful thought. That
would be: Writing in a free land.
I joined a writer’s critique group an learned to endure,
comments about my writing.
Now after three years of thinking and hoping to discover a system of
learning that would appear before me, a system that would require little or no money
and travel by which I could become a writer who needeth not to be ashamed, I have found it and it is free, and it is at hand to everyone reading this.
"When the student is ready the teacher will appear.” That is a sentiment expressed by Clement Stone and Napoleon Hill. I’m ready to learn to write and the teacher
has appeared.
