I've always wanted to become an author, either creating a book or a play. My father was an excellent story teller and wrote many short stories.
I wish I could be creative. I would have such a hard time doing that.
Perhaps you could join up with someone else - kind of a joint authorship, so to speak.
Possibly. I dont really have a passion for it yet. Im still just a little curious because my friend is really into it.
You definitely need passion for it. Perhaps if you and your friend got together at some point you could share copyright together and make lots of money! Mind you, various jurisdictions mean you have to be somewhat flexible!
Now that is something I never thought of. What other professions are there for authors?
Well, an author is also known as a writer and is basically the person who gave existence to something. You could be a screen writer in Hollywood or on TV.
That would be a dream job. Maybe I can start as a sort of hobby first?
