Writing for an Audience or Writing for Yourself

Updated on January 31, 2025

I share my experiences, my emotions and believe in myself. I am positive, confident and love life.

Writing online

I write for me and for an audience. Writing is not for everyone, especially when you make money the priority.

I did not make money a priority and have grown to prove my point in what I do best. Writing comes easily to me and has learned about a topic and written about it.

You can go to great lengths in researching a specific topic and come up with a big zero.

I had my mind wrapped around a topic and lost interest in that topic after fifteen minutes.

I learned from those moments of writing.

When you put your mind to writing be relaxed, and happy and have an improved knowledge of that subject.

Writing down valuable points can make a difference in your work. You learn from what wrong or right you have accomplished.

Do you think rules don't apply to you as a writer?

Most writers get the idea in their heads that rules don't apply to their efforts.

Publish as is!

Can you publish your work without further improvement?

Telling lies to you about writing is the wrong attitude.

Do you think that writing without editing, will gain you success in the writing field?

Rejection tends to make you feel disappointed and left out.

Why?

Rejection is telling you to continue and not give up. Show determination and motivation with negativity.

However, most writers don't want to go on writing daily. Sometimes writers tend to feel down when dealing with rejection and in negative conversations.

A writer requires a positive mind to go on writing. There again, writers make up all these excuses in their minds to stop and feel down.

Making excuses, ''I am not capable of writing,'' or ''I can't write'' is not going to make you feel better.

You don't have to stop there!

I did not stop when I felt down about my work. Rejection shows you need to work further on your project. Being a writer does not mean writing is your only part of that field.

What about marketing?

You have to write the best query letter and proposal to make space for your published work. A published author requires a lot of hard work in writing and getting their work out to an audience.

It is not just about jotting down what they know there is more than that. Marketing is hugely important when writing and sharing ideas with an audience or with publishers.

Spending too much time on the least important work as where will you be published is the least of your concerns.

Focus on writing at your best.

Learn how to get your work written and published most professionally. Writing is more than just about getting published.

There is marketing like talking to people constantly on social sites about your goals.

You need to have a free flow of conversation when marketing your work.

Build a foundation as a writer!

Work your hardest and keep on writing. Improve your skills and be alive from the inside when writing.

Every aspiring writer wants their dream to be fulfilled. Sometimes what a writer produces is not good enough for publishers.

Working with a few writers is better than having to put up with many writers and not getting the best work.

Don't be a hack writer!

To become a great writer, you should focus on writing and reading daily. Understand the meaning of writing.

What makes you a better writer?

I am not the best writer, but I try to improve my writing.

It has been a challenging effort for me to live in a foreign country from South Africa to Croatia.

My focus over the years has meant that I speak in both Croatian language and English language.

Think about your words

The art of writing is the art of discovering what you believe.

Gustave Flaubert

Write online

Avoid arrogance!

Every writer has a unique writing style, so judging others of how they write or speak is not a way to improve your writing skills.

A beginner or a professional writer in whichever way you see it, it comes down to how one puts their words together and understands their line of work.

The effort you put into writing can be none or all. You can create many words but if you lack ability your words won't be so meaningful.

Worthy advice from other writers can be useful to you. Working together as writers is not always an option. It does not work put for every writer.

You are also faced with jealous writers.

Writers who are afraid of having their work read by the public don't reach their goals. It is sad when a good writer fails to move forward. Sometimes writers lose themselves in their writing and forget how to express simple words.

  • A writer has a chance to send a message across to an audience and to write from within. Be honest in what you write about.
  • What do you think about writing a story or an article?
  • You can put the pieces together if you put your mind into working your hardest.
  • Do you prefer to write for yourself or an audience?
  • Discover a new world out there and feel free to express your thoughts.
  • Public writing allows you to think bigger and do bigger.
  • Don't lose yourself in the process!
  • You can write many events in a diary at some point that diary will be read by someone else.
  • Most writers don't want to share their personal experiences while others prefer to share their personal experiences.
  • You use writing as a model for yourself.
  • Writing is not every person’s cuppa tea!
  • I write to improve my lifestyle.
  • I prefer to write for an audience.
  • I want to be heard loudly and clearly.
  • Writing is an earning option if you make the time and put in all the effort surely you will see the best results.
  • I learned the hard way, and don't regret one single moment for trying my hardest to see my best results in writing.
  • Time will tell of your hard work.
  • Only you will know at best if you are true to yourself, in writing and in life.
  • You can't lie to yourself forever!
  • Life is what you make of it in every way. Be positive and be your true self.
  • You still have to be true and avoid lying to yourself in the writing field.

Write with a full mind!

Either write something worth reading or do something worth writing.

Benjamin Franklin
