The Professional Fiction Writer | A Year in the Life - Nonfiction - E-book - ePub

What's it like to live life as a professional fiction writer? This series of original, uncut blog posts is an intimate glimpse into the day-to-day life of a professional fiction writer. And a great deal more. I've included daily, monthly and annual word counts, both fiction and nonfiction. Those are to plainly illustrate what you can accomplish if you just do it. On many days I've included Topics of interest to fiction writers.
Those include various aspects of writing fiction, publishing and distribution, sales venues, cover design and many, many others. Many writers have contacted me to let me know they gleaned valuable tips on their own from "The Day" segments even on those days when I didn't include specific topics. I've also included, almost every day, various items and links "Of Interest" to writers. These point often to other successful professional writers' blogs or to various writers' resources. The "Of Interest" section also occasionally contains links to my own main author website, which is my first and last name followed by dot com.
There you can find blog posts in the Professional Writers Series, a listing of Writers' Resources and a great deal more. This Journal began as a daily diary of sorts to hold myself accountable as a fiction writer. After all, if you don't write, you aren't a writer. But it grew into a valuable resource. If you want to begin or enhance your journey as a writer, you can't do much better than to make the investment in this book.
