Motivation Monday: You Are a Writer
Even if you don’t think so.
Okay, full disclosure. This is advice I have trouble taking myself. If you’re anything like me, a self-deprecating unpublished author, you too, have trouble with this.
Here’s the truth, you write. Whether it’s poems, short stories, screenplays, novels or something else altogether, you write. Not only do you write, but it is a core fiber of your being. Writing would be one of your islands of personality. So why can’t we call ourselves writers?
Well, because we feel like posers, and most of us hate ourselves. The truth is you… we… are writers. Published or unpublished, we write. We love it. We live and breathe it. Don’t be ashamed to say it.
Keep speaking it into the universe. I am a writer. Because you are, even if the almighty gatekeepers haven’t recognized it yet.
