I Want to be a Writer

I've wanted to be a writer for some time now. It's not like I haven't done enough things in my life that I need to be successful at something else.

Maybe because of the ADD, I really seem to like variety. I do a thing for maybe 5 to 7 years and then I get bored with it. I can't imagine ever doing the same thing for my whole life. So not me!

So I'd like to write, maybe a book. But what do I write about? How do I compete with all the other with all the other writers out there? There are so many writers, what do I write and how do I complete? I'm obviously not that great at competing in the handmade jewelry business. I am however, fairly decent in residential lighting design, as there are very few of those by comparison, but I've been doing that for 17 years on and off.

Maybe I need to do a little research and compare book subjects. I can pick a seldom used topic. There, that's it. Or maybe I could just spam away on twitter like others I get followed by do. Follow and drop, there, that's the ticket.

Or maybe I should just join a convent. I've never done that before. Are there convents for agnostics?

I'd love to kick my arse and start with the writing... I have quite a few ideas, and one of them more developed than others, but I really don't think I have the time to do so now...

OH my....I've been working on a book for two years now...lol Then when I think more about writing I think...geeze there so many writers and many who have been doing it forever. But then I think of the Potter, 50 shades of gray authors and how they were basically overnight successes.... a great place to start is to visit the site she writes. if you don't find it visit my blog and there is a link....hugs
