I'm a writer (?)

So I guess I like putting question marks in parenthesis. (?)

And that's the first sentence I'm putting on my newly re-purposed writing blog. Awesome.

I'm currently trying to finish my first and so far only teen fantasy novel and I've decided that it's high time I start calling myself a writer. It's just a really difficult thing to do because I've had zero success at it. Zero. But in order to inform my sense of self in a way that might lead me to success it's important for me to say it and mean it. I'm a writer. I am a writer.

When I'm done with the novel I will probably end up self-publishing, which is cool because with the advent of e-readers self-publishing has gone legit. Hooray for writers getting a share of the power. This blog will hopefully serve as a place where I can connect with readers and generate some PR energy to fuel my novel's success so I can one day make a living at this.

Mostly, though, I'll probably just end up talking about my latest adventures with the Atkins diet and my favorite quotes from 30 Rock.
