My Writing: A Career As A Writer

Improved Essays
I’ve wanted to be a writer ever since I was a little girl. But it was only recently that I realized I want to use my talent for writing to encourage and enrich the black female community. I believe I can use my gift to represent my fellow black women in a positive, accurate light. However, successfully accomplishing this task takes a solid education and prolific writing experience. That’s why my educational goal is to attend an acclaimed college and eventually obtain a Master’s degree in either English or Creative

    My journey as a black millennial writer has been an interesting one. When I first began I thought just getting my name out was the only thing I needed to be successful, but I have realized that journey is defined by passion. I have written stories that don't reflect my passion. They don't even reflect my identity. I want to feel connected to the work I am doing and that is why I want to work with CRWN magazine.…

    When I was a child I always though about business. I wanted to know how things worked, how money worked. I started watching my grandfather write his invoices, deposit checks, talk to people as if he knew them but they had just met. I wondered how he did it, how he played his cards right and got people to hire him.…

    My talent is creating, and my form of creating is writing. Writing is a thing I've been doing since I was in the seventh grade. I started writing then because of a troublesome past, both my mother and my father had left my two other siblings and I all alone, leaving us with our uncle. It was very hard for me to adjust, I was fatigued and emotionally hurt, I turned to writing. My love for writing grew into a bigger part of my life when I kept dream journals.…

    My mind feels like a 1000 piece puzzle missing a piece. I can’t simply find the right words to say to start this paper. It is always like this when freewriting; the idea of freewriting in and of itself frightens me. Never able to put the words in my head onto paper in a way that it can be read eloquently by others.

    My writing experience in and out of school has almost always been seen exactly the same. It’s work, you do it for the grade and for some you suffer the entire time. On the occasional paper, usually one with no restrictions and you choose your subject, I find myself in a love and hate relationship with it. The fact being that writing papers has almost always been seen as homework for me. Have your paper done by this day, it needs to be this many words, and no grammatical errors just isn’t something I’d find myself getting hyped for every saturday night.…

    I didn’t know what I was in for after that day. A writer’s key experiences is what makes them different from other writers and is crucial to their growth as a writer.

After hearing my last writing assignment's result in the class, I started expecting a high scoring on my writing works. The compliment about my essay from my sixth-grade teacher changed me, so let's start from the beginning.…

As an art form I recently come to love writing down my thoughts, ideas, opinions and stories.…
