Hello
I did see a very old thread on this but thought a new one is in order.
As musicians, I think we all have an artistic side in us. We may be writing music, painting, or needlepoint, otherwise known as tattoos. Whatever it may give us the satisfaction of a completed project made with our hands and brains.
In my case, I have been a closet writer forever, not finishing anything almost intentionally. Recently I have found some writing forums online and have taken to the writing competitions, highly recommended. Some of these are also made around music so you can test your songs to those who know. They may not know your music, but they can wordsmith and help.
Over the last while, I have made some great strides and have completed a book of short stories. These are cycling fiction events, real but made "feel good" for the reader. The process was fun, and the stress to put it out there was massive! I used Amazon/Kindle, and it was a fantastic experience, they make it easy.
My goal was to sell ten copies, which I have.
I will author page is in the link below, but the intent here is to show an end product and help those who may be writing. The process can become more manageable if you know a few things or need to bounce ideas off a group.
To be clear, not looking for sales just proud of my achievement.
