So You Want to be a Writer?

Network

Writing is always refered to as a solitary profession, but when I decided to become a writer, I made more new friends than I would have thought possible. Why? Because we all have that need to reach out. To help each other, ask and answer questions, brainstorm, socialize or just cry on a sympathetic shoulder. No one will ever understand you as well as another writer. We're out here, find us.

I'm sure I would have published eventually, but without my local chapter of Romance Writers of America, I doubt it would have happened so quickly. Writing organizations can give you the opportunity to get hands on experience in the industry. They provide workshops, conferences, access to agents and editors, promotion for your career, public speaking experience, volunteer opportunities and the chance to meet new people.
