The First Step In Making Money As A Writer

I am COMPLETELY obsessed with Periscope! If you have no idea what I'm talking about, Periscope is a new live streaming app brought to the social media world by Twitter.


From the day I logged on I knew that I would be filming Scopes, a.k.a. broadcasts, on a regular basis. For the first time I feel like I have a platform that will allow me to get up close and personal with all of you Beauties. I logged on after three or four days in and posted my first one. I didn't realize that my makeup looked a mess, thanks to my blind self with no glasses, but I'm happy how it turned out.

In my Scope I talked about the first step in taking your writing from a hobby to a profession where you actually GET PAID. That step is changing your MINDSET! Here are my tips for the developing an author attitude:

Claim your author status!Be ready to work! This isn't a get rich quick scheme. Don't be surprised by the lack of support and help you receive from other authors. Be ready to learn and self teach. You'll have to watch the Scope for full details. Replays stay up for 24 hours so you have until about 7pm EST TONIGHT to see it before it's gone forever! See you on Periscope.
