Advice for Aspiring Authors

"Write because it is who you are, who you have always been, because it is who you long to be; but as an aspiring author you must be wise. Be mindful of your audience, those you attract and attach to your pen. You can no longer use fragmented sentences, misspelled words, misused verbs and punctuation. Understand the business, learn the business; keep an open mind to marketing and promotional ideas. Seek what will elevate your writing and be cost effective for your writing is no longer a hobby. As a published writer, you are a professional with a professional business. "
