First Things First …
I do not make my living as a writer. That is my goal however. I drive for FedEx Home Delivery … at least for now.
I must confess that I haven’t written regularly for some time.
Even when I was writing regularly for the local weekly newspapers, newsletters and websites, I barley earned enough to keep my gas tank filled and pay for my internet access.
I am the author of 45 eBooks Marketing Opportunities, and the former editor of FineLines, the Central Pennsylvania’s Writer’s Guild Newsletter, The Prince Gallitzin Chronicle, and the literary ezine, Le Mot Juste. My articles appear regularly in Connections, The Benedictine, and The Star-Courier, as well as several other local newspapers and websites.
Through my publishing company, Apogee Publishing, I’ve worked with writers from around the world. Helping them realize their dream of becoming published authors. Recently however, I’ve suspended the publishing and marketing of other writers, because I’ve realized that, while I was working closely with writers, what I really wanted to be doing was writing.
As a publisher I was a kind of “a writing groupie.” I got to be around writers, but I was neglecting my dream. Publishing was my methadone for writing.
Selfish? Maybe. What I fear most though is that the dreamer will die before the dream.
Anyway, this is where I’ll share my knowledge and experience, helping you and me progress in the dream.
To our writing success,
William
