What It Takes To Be A Writer

To be a writer,
it takes just a willingness to try
To be a good writer,
you must use your mind to create
To be a talented writer,
it takes years of practice
To be an exceptional writer,
you must put in the hard work,
be disciplined and have perseverance
To be an extraordinary writer,
you must take everything mentioned into account
and go above and beyond
But to be the type or writer
you always dreamed of
you just need to put your very heart and soul
into the creation of your words
and you’ll be
a writer who will resonate with the world

Make Your Words…

Make your words
reach those
that can’t be reached
Make your words
inspire
those that are seemingly lost
Make your words
educate
those who thirst for knowledge
And make your words
entertain
those who need an escape from their problems

Mark’s Writing Motto #50

The writer courageously puts their work out into the world
and bares their soul
in hopes of finding that special someone to connect with. 
One who sees how they see,
think like they think,
speak like they speak
and dreams like they dream.

The Right Connection

To encourage or inspire someone
through your words is difficult
To select the right words,
you must let go of everything
and let your heart be your guide
Once that happens,
you’ll be able to connect
with the soul of your readers
