Be Yourself — Your Thoughts, Opinions, And Feelings Are Valid
Don’t Sell Your Writing
Natural writers are selfish. They write in the first person, their thoughts are the only thoughts they know.
Everyone that writes in the second person is a salesperson. They are coming to your door to sell you an idea of yourself, or what your life could be if you buy what they are selling.
I’m not a salesman.
I am a natural writer. I say me, and I because I’m speaking from my perspective. I say we because we’re all in this together walking our journeys.
I don’t know you. I’ve never met you. I don’t know how you feel. I don’t know what you want. I would be lying to you if I did say I know you.
I do, however, know what I want. I do know me. And know I’m not going to pretend to be an overnight niche authority on the world’s stage.
