Recently I was asked to recommend a book. A book that I learned from, a book that taught me something, and a book that I walked away feeling moved by.
Why Become a Writer?
I’ve had some people ask me “What made you want to write?” And you know what, to be 100% truthful, it’s not so much that I decided to become a writer, as much as I feel like it has always been a part of me. As cliché as this sounds, it’s the only way I can answer it. I’m a people person, I always have been. I connect to people over words. I used to love English class and I still love correcting my husband’s spelling and grammar! I kept a journal for as long as I can remember, and after a stressful day I used to look forward to writing everything down. (Too bad I wasn’t famous; I could be paid for an autobiography already written that I have stashed away in my closet). My last job I was the Marketing Manager and I got them into writing blogs, and you know what? Writing blogs was my favourite part of my job!
