Writing Career

It should be obvious that I want to be a professional author when I graduate. Because I already am an author. I write and publish. All my life I have loved reading. It runs in my family blood. And from reading so much, I gained the ability to write well. But I didn't really realize it for a while. And that is one of the reasons I didn't bother to learn cursive. Or practice handwriting any more. The other reason is my pre preschool. They taught us how to behave perfectly, form letters perfectly, color in the lines perfectly, and even write letters to our houses! And they taught us to write to 100. But get this. If you made one little mistake, your work was put in the fireplace, and you had to do it again. And once, I was wearing long pants on a sunny day, and she cut off the bottoms of the legs and burned them. I hated that place. So did my wrist. But it is probably a big reason I was so ahead in reading and writing. Maybe someday I will find my pre preshool teacher, and thank her (well, more of a half thanks) for training me like a dog, and as strictly as you would treat a prisoner. Anyways, back to now. I am taking the Masterclass. In other words, my teacher there is the famous author James Patterson. It cost me 90$. And if I ever need to get hired for some kind of writing job, that will really help me. Anyways, as I said earlier, it took me a while to realize my writing skill. See, up until recently, I had to do all my writing by hand, and I hated that. So after like 4 grades of tons of reading per day, I realized I could write well. Well, more on this later. I might make a part 2 of this.
