Not Enough

  Hello all. Well, it's not enough. What I'm talking about is I have finished writing two novellas both 35-60 word count. From what I'm reading on boards like Reddit and others, that's not enough. I have written 12 very short stories already, which I will be posting monthly. I like short story writing.  Their easy to write and edit in an hour or so. Ok, I confess I write them and then I come back later to edit them. I've heard that if you want to post your stories online to places like Wattpad, Inkitt, and Amazon (for $$), the other two you just post to get reviews. Then you need to have more than just one or two books to post. Guess that makes sense. So, I'm working on fine-tuning my novellas that I have already finished. Then I'm going to start a new novella story, which I already have, it's just I keep changing the story. I'm a mess sometimes. 

This is just my hobby. I like to write. If I had to make a living from this, I would be starving because I really suck at it ( haha). So, what are you working on?   If you need some good suggestions, I would try Reddit. They have a lot of writers, advanced and beginners, with some good ideas. If you have a writing question or are not sure about something, you'll probably get your answers there. I'm hooked on using Reddit. Have a good writing day!

Shorts

 Hello there. Short stories: why you should think about writing them if you want to become an author. Short stories, I'm talking under 1000-word stories, are easy to write and edit. I just started writing some, and they have helped me a lot with writing longer stories. Ok, I confess I read a lot, so that also helps with my writing. But still, creating a short story is fun, especially if you're writing for a hobby like I am.  Just write whatever comes to mind, or a conversation overheard, or an action you saw two people do. That's what I do it when I write my short stories. They are either from my head or from watching people. Speaking of short stories, here's another one of my short stories for you to read, and let me know your thoughts. Thanks

So Many Thoughts

  Hello all. So many thoughts when it comes to writing. I'm still in the baby steps part of really learning how to write, edit, and get the story flowing right. What I find is that writing short stories under 1000 words has helped me to write better. They are much easier than when I write my novella, or is it a novel, which consists of 60,000 or more words. Yes, I'm working on two as we speak. You can learn a lot from YouTube, and Reddit is becoming a must when it comes to helping me learns the dos and don'ts of where to post my store and how to format and all that other writing stuff. I have also learned that a good story will not take you weeks; sometimes it takes you years to complete. the best advice I keep hearing is to keep on writing. and that's just what I intend to do. I write for a hobby, and if I can get coffee and a book money from my writing, that's a plus in my book any day.
