Noun A person who has written a particular text.A person who writes books, stories, or articles as a job or regular occupation. Synonyms author - scribe - penman
I'm getting back to basics, folks! I have my manuscript pending in 4 places right now. Two agents and two editors were interested enough to request a full. It is exciting, validating, invigorating and really, really scary... Every *ding* on my I-phone brings with it a heart pumping, "OMG, is this it? Could this be it?" I rush to my phone, click on my Inbox and let out a deep breath of disappointment, relief and bat-shit-crazy... it's just another e-mail from The Body Shop. Body Butter is on sale! Great (no, really, I love that stuff).
It's hard not to get caught up in the business of writing when you want so badly for it to be your business. At the same time, I realize that between blogging, tweeting, facebook-ing and trying to sell the book (not to mention the whole mommy/wife/lawyer th…
