The career of a creative writer cannot
remain stable. It is a career where every time you have to prove yourself through
the quality of work. This consistent quality work, builds up the good
reputation of the writer. It is very simple to start a career in writing. You
can write a poem or some article and name yourself a writer. It is very hard to
sustain and build a reputation as a writer. It is very important that others name
you a writer, rather than yourself. Good or bad, reputation follows the writer
everywhere. It is important that creative writers consider the quality of their
writing very seriously and understand the requirements of the publishing
company, editors, and literary agents. It is difficult to undo a bad
reputation. On the contrary it is very easy to build a good reputation.
The complete writing process is filled
with perils. The majority of writers experience difficulty when starting to
write. They have the central theme of the writing, but are stuck on how to
begin. Sometimes, writers argue that the ideas are clear and perfect, but the
writing or execution of the idea becomes difficult. The best way is to go step
by step. The writer must write slowly each day. The writer must work hard on
finding correct words depending on the subject. This is the work of patience
and accuracy.
It is very important that the writer
must be well-informed. Writers must have a habit of reading frequently. It is
quite absurd if a person tells that he or she wants to write but do not get
much time to read. Good reading is the key to being a good writer. You must be
fond of reading everything. A good habit of reading and writing is very
important to cultivate the skill of creating your style of writing.
Social
networking sites: like many other fields, the world of writing is also very
competitive. There are many good creative writers present. Just word of mouth
is not enough to establish oneself as a creative writer. Networking is a very
effective way to make oneself known. Participating
in writers’
conferences and attending writers’ groups
have been very fruitful activities which increase contacts with many useful
people in the writing industry. Social networking sites like Facebook and
Twitter do a very remarkable job of building good connections worldwide. It is a
very quick and effective way to get known.
Joining an association of writers is
also very advantageous. You can join a professional group of writers, if your
work is published. It is a great opportunity to join an association and build
up a network of like-minded writers. This provides advantages like getting
beneficial links, latest news of the industry, and you can join the discussion
in groups.
Creative writing needs powerful imagination.
It is very joyous work to do. You start a journey filled with adventures,
magical worlds, and many more fantasies which you need to put for sale. You can
use personal thoughts, imaginations of childhood, stories and experiences and
create a creative work.
It is very hard to sell your work
overnight and become rich. Your work will receive admiration from newspapers
and editors but in order to earn money your work must get sold. Therefore, the sale
of your work is very important. Admiration does help to build up your
reputation in the long run, but things should be balanced. You must have good earnings
and good admiration. This will help you to be a reputed creative writer along
with good earnings. Today, the internet provides all the answers. You can
create your own profile online, which will make you known as a writer and
people can visit your website and look at your work.
You can publish your poetry,
stories, and novels online and receive reviews online. Good reviews will add to
your good reputation. You can link your profile to your website so that viewers
can easily connect to your work.
