Let the Journey Begin!
I am a 19 year old girl in Arizona, and I have decided to become a writer. I am not sure of specifics, only that I would like to one day publish a novel. As of right now my goals may be cliche, but as I progress through my journey things should solidify and a more complete picture shall emerge.
In this blog I will post the steps I am taking to establish myself as a writer. I will also be posting things I am writing in hopes of constructive feedback. Finally, I will be sharing with others all the places I am going, and the people I am talking to, and hopefully help other new writers establish themselves as well.
P.S. I am aware my spelling and grammar is not the best, so corrections are welcome. : )
