Message from a new Goodreads Writer
July 9, 2016
I am new to blogging, so I apologize if it shows. I just wanted to thank all those who signed up for the giveaway and those who have become ‘followers’. I am very honored indeed. I plan to write a blog in the future that might be helpful to others who want to write. I have always wanted to, but like everyone in the position of working and bringing up a family, there was no time—and when I think about it—I didn’t have the experience of life I needed. Some writers are gifted from an early age and whatever they write is wonderful. One thing I will say though is, this has been an exhilarating experience, researching, writing, attending writing school and workshops for screenplay writing and novel writing, learning how to write query letters, beating on the doors of Hollywood, beating on the doors of hundreds of agents, learning how to edit and format, learning how to market (an addictive part of the trip!). All I can say is follow Winston Churchill’s advice—‘Never give up!’ If you do get started on that book, I can promise you, you will meet a lot of nice people along the way—I did. Thank you once again, especially those who have written nice reviews!
