Hey everyone, I am in the process of the never ending journey that is being a writer.
I currently am working on a 25 page story by the end of the year to publish with a friend. Right now I am entering a short into a local magazine and working on publishing a collection of shorts right now. I have posted a few things to my blog and invite everyone to check it out. Let me know what you think if you do end up reading it, thanks.

Good luck, and that's a great idea to start with a serious focus on short stories, rather than a novel.
Here's a speech by Ray Bradbury that someone introduced me to. You might like it, if you have 50 or so minutes to spare. Or maybe you've seen it.

Of course writing is a never ending and tireless process, and there is no place we can stop at, and there will be no progress when we stop with complacence.
To be a good writer one should be perfect and he or she should excel all or else it is not possible to be a great writer.

I think there is no rule to be a good writer, you have to find out your way of writing. Thatīs we call style.

What a difference about Joyce and Marcel Proust. They had build a style. Both wonderful writers.

If one wants to emerge as a write one must be intoxicated with language. You need to differentiate your self and the real differentiators for that matter are your capacity for structuring sentences, stylizing your ideas and finally getting tuned to the taste of an audience you target at. If you can succeed in these things you will turn out to be a good seller.
I am not one already but I feel like this, learned of course through experiences in life with writing.
