Great post! Awesome tips and advice! It should come in handy for a writer like me. Still in high school, fifteen years old, and trying on my own to launch my writing career. Though, I’m not complaining. I love the feeling of being able to show others what I can do. But, yes, even though I write what I feel like writing and am currently unpublished, I am a writer. It’s what I do and how I chose to express myself. I love it. It’s not just a dream. It’s a passion.

I am a writer – until recently I have been a very frustrated writer – then I discovered blogging and it set the writer in me free.

Now I blog for the sheer pleasure of writing – if my hard work gets read somewhere along the line, that is great.

If what I write is helpful or interesting to some, even better. If my writing sparks some healthy debat then I have hit the spot, but in reality all that matters to me at this point in time is that I am writing and enjoying every single moment of it.

So to put my usual upside-down spin on the article’s last words – “So yes… you’re alive, so you’re a writer.” I would say “Yes I am a writer so I am alive”

extremely motivational and powerful piece. Writer, blogger, author, webmaster…I don’t guess it really matters what you call it. Blogsville has inspired the writer in all of us and more importantly given people a reason to READ again. Great post!!

Great, excellent post. It inspires me so much.
But I am not a blogger neither do I have website. I spent most of my time in the class room, leturing and speaking to the students and browsing the internet. I have also been writing academic papers and articles for newspapers since the beginning of eigthties, but never feel like a writer. By the way, is there realy a “true writer” ?
Your shorthand : “I have language, so I can speak. I can speak, so I can tell a story. I can tell a story, so I can write. ” I like this and will certaintly forward this shorthand to my stundents. You are realy creative. I try to make my students as creative as you are. Thank you for your insight. All the best!

I don’t think it is by accident that I stumbled into this post on this early morning. I’ve spent many days and nights lately looking for the encouragement to say, I’m a writer. I have another job that pays me well but when I write, I lose all sense of time and space and I feel joy. Even when it’s hard, I feel a sense of who I was made to be. I’m only in the blog stage but the feedback has been encouraging and I’m moving forward to see where this journey takes me. Thanks for a great post that is just what I needed.
