The Journey to Professional Writing – One Author’s Perspective
I am but one of many on the journey to become a professional writer. Each has their own path to walk and anything along the way can make the walk different from someone else’s experience. When does one become an expert in the field? There is not an official degree, award or plaque that is given. I guess you must have to know in your heart that you are “there” – I am not. I will continue to walk my road and learn along the way, picking up interesting ideas as I go, always trying to be better than I was the day before. I compete with me and with no one else. I am not Rowling, Riordan, Collins, or Roth. I am making my own way, with my own words, in my own time.

This may have been a rejected cover shot, but I still love it.
