Living the joy of travel writing Living the joy of travel writing

The truth is, I was never much of a traveler before that experience, but it was the joy of writing about my travels that encouraged me to travel some more (instead of the other way around). I realized that, in writing about my experiences, I was immortalizing these journeys in print; therefore, I had to seek out experiences worthy of being immortalized. I didn’t want to simply write about ordinary activities and everyday events; I wanted to document extraordinary moments and milestones, or at least adventures in places outside of my usual confines.

Recapturing the magic of writing through blogging

Corporate writing is just something that I do—day in, day out, Mondays through Fridays, sometimes even on weekends and holidays. I get by mainly because, as nerdy as it sounds, I love researching, learning new things, and interviewing people. Although it’s a job that I eventually learned to enjoy and appreciate, there came a point in my life I felt that I needed to write more aside from technical-slash-electrical stuff.

So I did what everybody else with guts and a working internet connection did—I started blogging.

“How to Make Money from Writing” Workshop FAQs

Have you ever heard of the phrase “starving artist”? Have you ever told someone that you want to be a writer only to be told that “there’s no money there”? (Even if no one told you that you weren’t going to get rich from writing, didn’t you think that already?)

There are many reasons to believe that living the creative life is an indulgence that is best reserved for those who already have money or those who only want to do it to earn extra money on the side. And there are just as many reasons not start your writing career and living the life of a creative entrepreneur.
