Tips on becoming a writer

And you really want to be a writer?

You love words. You have the knowledge of the written words and at least the basic rules of the English language.

In today's world we can't get away from the Internet. We use it in networking, social media, and importantly, we use research online to extract information faster.  Having said this, I assume you already own a computer, or at least plan to have one soon if you are truly serious about freelance writing.

What to do to become a writer

Create your own writing space anywhere suitable at home

This is self-explanatory.  Set up your own home office. It can be a small portion of your home, provided it's mainly for your writing corner. Aside from your pen and paper, you'll need a workplace all your own - your computer work "station", a place where you keep your supplies, file research notes, reference books, and a comfortable place health-wise. (I'm talking about proper chair, correct working position, light, and all that.) Depending on your family situation, if you can manage having your own work room, the better. What's important is that your family or loved ones are made aware of your working space and time, and that they respect them.
