Where are the Serious Writers?

Tweet

As time goes on it really doesn't appear as if too many writers take writing seriously. Some seem to be writing for fun. There are still some who wish to be taken seriously as a writer. If there are any plan to take writing to the next level then there should be some seriousness. Writers should be passionate about their craft. For some they've dabbled with writing as a hobby and some have discovered how "rewarding" writing can be. Not every writer will think that writing should be taken seriously. Some may not want to aim higher when it comes to writing. With all of the madness surrounded by writers being overly competitive perhaps some have chosen to not be serious at all. There are some writers who continue their "journey" and who continue to write books. Even short story writers will be serious. Of course writing doesn't always have to be about being serious. There should be some fun when it comes to writing. The key to becoming a better writer is to love writing. No matter what others have to say there should be a continuous process of learning. Some writers end up leaving their craft and may venture back to find that "writing" isn't the same. Too many writers have fallen into a dark world where writing is about sabotaging other writers. It would be nice to see the writers who actually cared about the craft and were considered of other writers. "I'm a writer and no matter how many critics try to fill my ears with their criticism . I'm continuing the journey." by: (Tanikka Paulk)
