2nd Post for the day October 7 ISWG

I almost forgot AGAIN. First Wednesday of the month is Insecure Writers Group. This month’s prompt is…October 7 question – When you think of the term working writer, what does that look like to you? What do you think it is supposed to look like? Do you see yourself as a working writer or aspiring or hobbyist, and if latter two, what does that look like?

I’m still a hobbyist (at least according to my tax filer). Yes some books are published, but are they making big bucks?…Next question.

I would like to look more like one of the writers of ‘yore’…an Asimov or Christie. You know the prolific ones! Who spent hours a day working.

I’ve got the ideas, but I need to tie myself to the computer and finish/pound them out. I used to spend evenings and summers doing that, but once I retired and had all the time in the world, I’m not so disciplined.

I guess this month’s prompt is a good kick in the butt.

Thank you for the kick goes to…The awesome co-hosts for the October 7 posting of the IWSG are Jemima Pett, Beth Camp, Beverly Stowe McClure, and Gwen Gardner! Click on the icon below to see other answers to this month’s prompt.
