Hello, After much soul searching which lasted for about 15 minutes, I decided to take writing seriously. You see in a way I'm a writer, I studied journalism and spend the three years of my degree writing articles. But I don't feel like one. What I want from my writing is to be able to write fiction short stories or even novels. Unfortunately, as of now, I'm still struggling. I need practice. Lots and lots of practice. Since 2013, I've been telling myself that I would write stories and yet I didn't. Last week, I realized that I was on holyday and that I had lots of free time on my hand. Also, it occured to me that among all the story ideas I ever had none had ever been conveyed into words (one hell of a scary thought!). This is why I decided to join this forum. Hopefully, I will be able to write consistently and become the writer I want to be. Bye
Welcome fellow newbie I'm also struggling with getting my writing going. Did you find the time to write anything during your holiday?

It's good to know that I'm not the only one struggling with this, lol. Well, this week, I've been better. I'm almost finished writing a short story and I wrote a writing prompt that I found on Writer Digest. Hopefully, I can keep it up in the coming weeks.
