It has been a bad week at work. It was spilling over into everything else. I was having one of those days – you know – where you start doubting yourself and wonder if your work is utter rubbish. All those questions were there: Why am I doing this? Am I any good? Have I improved my writing skills? Is my editing hopeless?
Then a friend of mine asked my to write a guest post for his blog on Boomerang Blog. He had been impressed with my writing enthusiasm (cool!) and requested I write from the point of view of a new writer trying to break into the industry. Maybe I could inspire other writers just beginning their journey? Wow! My first invitation to write a guest blog! But what do I write? I haven’t done this before. I put pen to paper and wrote.
It is now done and edited. Best of all, he was happy with it – and my editing! (All that reading and research must have paid off.)
You will find my guest post – When I Grow Up I Want to be a Writer – on Boomerang Blog, hosted by Boomerang Books.
Am I excited? Can I do this? Hell yeah!
A big shout out to George Ivanoff – thank you for asking me to write for you and for your continuing support.
