Like many other hopeful writers out there, it is my dream to one day write a bestselling novel and publish it for the world to see. At this time in my life that dream seems like a distant star, unreachable, unattainable, but not impossible. I have been writing stories since I was fourteen years old. Though I have never completed a story worthy of submitting to a publisher, I know it is something I can do if I really put my mind to it. Now, will I ever be a best selling author? Who knows. The odds are unlikely. But if I continue to have the attitude that I CAN'T write a bestselling novel then there is no hope I will ever be able to. As Les Brown once said, "Shoot for the moon and if you miss you will still be among the stars." I think that is a great quote to live by.
In this blog I plan to chronicle my writing endeavors, such as my attempt at
NaNoWriMo 2009 this November, and to post helpful tips and articles that I discover along the way. So, stay tuned as I set out on my journey to bestselling stardom. I know it won't be easy, but I do know it will be a great adventure.
Peace and Joy,
Miranda Joy
