The publishing business is just as hard, if not harder, than the music industry to get into. I got my feet wet before, but my next goal is to dive right in.
I did sell copies, I did make money, but after two years, that shit really starts to dwindle. It's all apart of the business, and its my time for me to release another book. I'm actually investing a lot of my own money for marketing this time around. |

^word son, good to see a fellow writer. lol
My main target is to be a sports journalism, but I'm choosing to major in English and then master in journalism in graduate school. Because English leaves the door open to many possibilities. I'm also minoring in Creative writing as well as taking a screenplay writing. So I def will be trying to get into the writing books ish soon, mostly sports related of course. lol And then always been working on screenplay ideas. But I believe majoring in English can help all of those. so worddddd I just gotta big up rap and all this so called "pointless" text battling, because in reality it changed my worst subject (english and any writing assignments) into my best subject. hollaaaa

Lol really man? I never knew you were a writer.
And screenplays for me: It's not a matter of if, its a matter of when. I will find the inspiration soon enough lol. But fuck yeah thats awesome...I haven't made it to college yet. Hopefully within a year or two though. |

yea, son i be doing sports writing for school paper. posted all the articles on here. And as for screenplay writing, I just have many ideas, that i've developed with all those writing activities you can do. Like for your main characters, just make a stat sheet about him like from important shit (Age, birthplace, etc. etc.) to pointless shit (Fav food, music, etc). Then write like a summarized life story about him and his personality. That way it'll be like you know that person, and character development will be so much easier to do. So i been doing that, and then most probably I'd write the story as a actually book first, then transform it into screenplay. But I'm just holding off from starting it because I want to take some of those courses so I can be doing it right from beginning. Also, gotta do some research for one of the ideas.

It will all come down to when final editing and printing is done to decide that. Roughly 120,000 words at 300 words per page in a book is about 400 pages, so it is a decent size. |
