The Writing Plateau
I started off so excited in my new writing venture. This was finally going to be it for me. I was going to be a writer even if it meant writing articles. Granted, It’s not the great American novel, but it’s still writing. It’s not writing a romance novel with characters wearing sexy lingerie, but it’s still writing. I’d finally have a stable online income. I’d have a job that would last for years to come.
I started seeing the first few pennies trickle in & I thought “It’s working!” This of course inspired me to write even more. Then it seemed like the more I wrote, the less money I made. Everyone told me not to expect too much in the beginning. I guess I just thought that it would be an upward trend. I will keep going, because I will be a writer. It just goes to show that this field takes a lot of patience & perseverance.
