When you see a writer disappear from social media, what’s your first thought? Some may not notice. Others may wonder where they are—particularly if this writer has a prominent presence. These writers may be talking about tips, posting memes, or sharing their work regularly.
Become a New Writer Daily
What does it mean to become a new writer daily? When I started writing, I was excited, invigorated, and terrified. The “newness” is what drove me to want to do better, learn more, and connect with other writers. I couldn’t wait to find new opportunities, hear about what others were doing, and find out about new techniques. I could taste the excitement. Some days it the experience sweet and others it was bitter.
On Becoming a Travel Writer
Do you have an interest in launching a lifestyle blog about your travels? Is it your dream to see your travel essays in print or on a travel website? If so, having life writing or autobiographical skills is your first step in those directions. Instead of writing about why you believe your trip was the best, instead, you’ll be inspiring your readers with your stories.
Announcement: Vacation!
