Re: Paul Parsons | So you want to be an Author
Great comments and advice. Digging inside myself to find the discipline to write everyday at the same time is much harder than I ever thought it would be. Like you said some days the screen stays blank in front of me and others the words almost magically flow.
I can't imagine the perseverance to get through writing a book. It is an amazing commitment.
Your commitment and devotion to writing is to be admired and
Wow - thank you for sharing this with us - if enthusiasm for reading alone was all one needed to write, then I would be a prolific author - LOL - however, such is not the case, obviously. The discipline and dedication required is amazing; thank you for stepping out and sharing your talent with us!
Great advice! :) I'll pass on the link to my friends for sure!
It's wonderful that you took the time to give some added advice to those of us that would love to write, and aren't sure which way to turn, and what lies around the corner once they get started. I, myself have a book in mind, as well as the discipline, should I decide to write. Once the book is written, I don't know where I would go, because I don't have another book in mind. It would only be a one-book shot. That's my whole problem. The other problem right now is that I have myself involved with another commitment at the moment, so I have to put it on the back burner (again), which doesn't thrill me. I thought about writing it out in longhand here and there when I get a few spare minutes, so that at least I can get it started, and maybe I'll be able to get it finished in between the commitment I'm involved in now. Writing has been a dream of mine for as long as I can remember, and I had teachers in school who even told me that I could go far, if I continued in that vein. I would also love to read your books, considering I love the setting of your books, and also love the topic. Thank you again for the advice!!
Great advice. Thanks for sharing. And your books sound wonderful. I truly appreciate the chance to win. But now that I've read about them, I plan to get your books to read whether I win or not. Best of luck with them - and all you do!
Thanks to all who have commented. Hang in there.. Sounds like you all
Great advice. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for writing such great books.
That was good advice. I am always impressed with the dedication and discipline that writers have.
I appreciate the advice, I think you have to keep growing as a person, that never stops and committing yourself to things you love and believe in is such a rewarding part of being who you are!
Thank you for taking time to advise. I wrote a children's story years ago in high school and my teacher found an interested publisher. I wrote it for my sister and she asked that I not share it. Now I regret that I did not, but am hesitant to try again. It has been many years, but your comments have helped.
I have often thought about writing a book, but have never felt
Your words are very encouraging, with good suggestions for a person wanting to be a writer. Your books sound so very exciting, the type I like to read. Thank you for this chance to win them and I hope I do. The Best To You Always,
Your books sound wonderful. Thank you very much for the insight into writing!
It's always interesting to hear writers' stories - thanks for sharing.
Thanks for your words of encouragement. You are right. I have spoken to some authors that are even more than happy to offer advise. I love that networking that in the world of authors, everyone is willing to share and see to each other success. All of you authors are the best.
I found this interesting. Hope to read the books soon.
Well done for getting your work written and out.
I truly enjoyed reading how you got started writing and disciplined yourself to do it daily at a set time. I think if you're committed to something, you will succeed at it (as in any job you have a strong interest in). Your books sound great, and much success with them!
It always seems like the writing community is so supportive.
