    Hello Everyone

    Hello all, my name is Will. I am 32 years old. I am married and we have two wonderful daughters. I started writing when I was about 11. I used to write poems which later turned into songs. I wrote positive hip hop songs up until I was about 26. I always thought that I was going to be the next big star, then reality hit. I currently have a job that just doesn't do it for me. It pays the bills, but that is about it. I recently started going back to school trying to find out what it is that I want to do for a living. After taking an English 101 class and a Screenwriting class. I realized just how much I like writing. I thought it was my music that I loved when really it was the words, which go hand in hand I suppose. Anyway, here I am saying to the world, "I am a writer and I will be successful.

    Thank you and Many Blessings

    Welcome, Will, to our community.

    I like your mantra you need to believe in yourself as a writer or you'll never get there! Welcome
