Freelance Writing Tip #8: Think You’re a Writer? Write!

Many, many people claim to be a writer. They say they’ve written a book, hidden in their attic, or they say that they published a poem four years ago that rivals Emily Dickinson’s Poems. No matter how you sugar-coat it, you can’t really call yourself a writer if you don’t write on a consistent basis. Writing isn’t like riding a bike; the only way you get any writing done, and improve your writing, is if you write a little bit every day whether you’re writing-for-hire or writing for yourself. So what are you waiting for? Get writing today!
