Am I a writer? I say I am, I tell myself I am, yet I don't write. I did NaNoWriMo, so now I can continue to tell myself that yes, I am a writer, but I cannot let the momentum stop here. I need to have a product, something I can give people that I am proud of to prove my abilities, something I can read aloud at a writer's read, and feel passionately about. I need to spend more hours writing. I need to investigate writing related careers. Would I make a good journalist? Could I be a travel writer? What other careers are there for writers, and how do I start now? Should I get a job or internship at the daily press? Should I start a travel blog? Should I try to publish a novel or a short story? Should I enter writing competitions? Should I learn to write essays? I should try to do all of these things. I will do all of these things.

AuthorMy name's Ella. I'm fifteen. I play roller derby and viola, but I'm not particularly good at either. I write more than I speak, and I think more than both. I love reading, and am more than a little bit obsessed with podcasts. I have a schnauzer poodle, and my favorite color is purple. Archives
