After lots of contemplating, I finally know what I want to be when I grow up. Being that I'm already grown, I'm a little late in this discovery, but I've decided I want to be a writer! Ha...I don't have a clue what I want to write about, but one of my friends suggested I start a blog, so here I am. This is my third post, so I thought I would explain why I signed up. I want to write! Not novels, or short stories or any of that---just write, articles, thoughts, whatever, I don't even know.
The real world is a tough place. I don't think many people are actually in the profession they belong, or in one they love. After almost 7 years, I realize insurance is NOT the profession for me---well, to be honest I figured that out a long time ago, but the bills must get paid. Ha...
I've always been a pretty descent writer, so why not write? Except that it leads to the problem of what to write and who to write it for. Seems I had writers block before I even started, but I'm giving it a shot.
Doesn't it seem like such a glamorous profession--like Carrie Bradshaw in Sex in the City, or Kate Hudson's role in How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days? If that's what the life of a writer is like, I'm down!
But for now, I guess I'll just see how it goes. Blogging and writing ridiculous things, what ever's on my mind that day. Maybe something will be interesting and one day when I'm on a roll someone will like what I have to say...
But just in case, I haven't told any of my friends about my blog. I'm like Mark Twain a little, anonymous or just under my SHORTCAKE alias. Haha. Ok, that's a stretch.....But whatever, you know what I'm saying...
