I have to say the same thing Stephen King said in his book On Writing. Write a lot and read a lot. Also, don't expect to get rich any time soon. Write, study your craft, rewrite, revise, study the market, submit, then write something new. Ignore all the fools who say you're wasting your time. It's not about money or prestige--although most of us want both. It's about capturing your view of the world in words. There's a lot to capture, so click off the Internet and get to work.

Sue Fagalde Lick:
My art and my poems are my life, but I'm going nowhere with them. I've pretty much given up my art to write, and I've joined writer's groups as well as taken creative writing courses. I am enjoying creating poetry more so than all my other disciplines. I think my aboutme.com page tells the story as well as my Weebly page: http://awalkbackhome.weebly.com/home.html#/ which marries both disciplines. Any advice?
