Happy Write Year

Hello everyone,

Glad that there's another year, this is the best time to get started on your literary dreams.

If you're an aspiring author, it makes sense to invest in a writer's seminar or workshop. These classes get you going on the 'ground floor' as you'll hear from professionals who describe their experience, expertise, and encouragement that you will need to go through the publishing process.

It is believed there is an estimate of 80% of the U.S. population that wants to write a book. Wishing to write a book is not the same as actually making it happen. How many of you felt this was the year to begin that long awaited novel or family biography, perhaps even a chapbook full of your favorite poems only to be bogged down with personal issues, obligations and unexpected events? While we cannot predict what will happen in the course of the year, it is suggested that you at least attend a workshop or seminar in your area to at least know what is expected of you when you finally put pen to paper and start your manuscript.

If you don't have the time to attend one of these functions, then take a look at the Resources page of our website, Authors N Focus, and discover what it takes to be the author you want to be.

Until then, always keep your dreams in focus!

P.S. This blog has been neglected for the longest time, but starting this year, we'll go more into the issues surrounding the publishing business and what it means for new and aspiring authors. We plan to post more interviews from emerging writers too.
