Ha! The dying shopping mall is what I have felt like in the last year. But it's a good thing because it has forced me to create the next level of the kind of writer I want to be. I've wanted to kick content marketing to the curb for at least 2 to 3 years, but didn't because it was my bread and butter. Now all my tech clients are no longer answering my emails and I'm forced to move on. I found it hard to think that I could be a creative writer and be paid for it, so I dragged my feet on that dream for years. But the economy forced me into writing magazine articles, writing books, coaching nonfiction writers. It turns out that I probably should have been doing this the whole time. Ha! I'd love to learn screenwriting and how to sell my work, but I'm working on finding a rhythm in what I already have. I'm particularly working on memoir and learning how a quality memoir is written and how it eventually turns into a movie. So this article is inspiring! Thank you.
Love your journey! It’s so awesome that you found what works for you (and that little nudge from the tech industry/universe to help you bring your dreams to life)! 💜
