The moment you write because of income-- that's when the real love for writing fades. Ever since I was 12-- I've always wanted to be a writer and it has never left.
Yes... sometimes you can get discouraged.. lose motivation.. and even want to stop.
But it never did. And that's how I knew that it was something that I love to do.
Anything that you love to do-- just do it. If money happens to step into the picture, thank God for it because it is more than a bonus.
But think to yourself, why do you write?
Do you love the feel of release after?
Do you love to create characters that you know and believe people that read it will relate to?
Do you love to create stories that are so close to life and you know that people will be impacted by it?
Do you love to create futuristic or new worlds for children or adults to escape in?
Whatever the reason maybe, once that reason is in you, don't let it go.
There is a reason why you are writing, and there are people out there that need to read it.
There is something special in that story of yours that needs to be seen by at least one person.
If the passion does die, reflect back to why you started to write in the first place. Of course life and others things may become a bit challenging and cause you to pause from it for a time, but by no means do not lose that passion-- that love that you have.
