My Manifesto

In life all we can do is make promises and plans for ourselves. Setting goals and planning our futures gives clear outlines to our life/writing journeys. To grow and mature, we must put ourselves in positions and situation that push our boundaries. We learn by listening to/observing others, research, preparation, trial and error.

To ensure I am pushed to be the best that I can be, I have written myself a manifesto. Something I can refer to and use to keep myself motivated…

• I aim to take part in as many literary events and opportunities as possible/available.
• I aim to surround myself with great minds.
• I aim to write everyday (even if it’s just in my journal).
• I aim to read often and widely in all genres.

I aim to be prepared and research where possible for events and the opportunities I am fortunate to be a part of.

These simple steps can aid my future and help build the writing experience I wish for. Life is what you make of it!
