What does it take to be a writer?

Many have asked the question, what does it take to be a writer? Motivation! That’s the answer, plain and simple.

Motivation is the key in becoming a great writer, it means to be dedicated to writing whether you feel your book will be a success or not. It is being committed to continually write whether you feel like it or not. Whether you have time or not, whether there is just too much going on. You need to set your mind to write.

Most writers set a time every day where they will sit and write for a few hours. For instance, every morning, you could set time to write from 10 – 1pm. If you are working, you could do this in the evening by setting a time every night or three times a week for three hours in an evening. You will be amazed after a few weeks, how easy it will become to sit and write.

It’s said that to get into the habit of doing something, you need to spend 18 times doing that thing and you will automatically start doing it without thinking of it. Above all ask the Holy Spirit to guide you and help you get motivated to write everyday and you will be amazed at what you will accomplish with His help! Happy writing!
