Write, write, and keep writing. That is how you get recognized. There are agents that actually do come along on the hubpages, and other places on the internet, looking for writers.
Keep writing, and more.
Get a blog, write in it everyday, hubpages, any thing that will get your name out there.
If you want to write, this is what you will need to do for writing for a lviing. But also you need to think abotu making money and the price of fame and fortune. read more
When asked the question, “What can a writer do to get noticed?” Some people may simply answer . . . write. They believe that all a writer must do for a little recognition is to write and write a lot and eventually you would have so many books or... read more
Lots of really good writers are never really recognized within their own lifetimes; at least not in the sense of becoming famous and wealthy and so forth. I think a person is a writer or isn't a writer. It's really that simple.
You can learn to write, but that doesn't make you a writer. If you write all the time, and you need to write, and you do it no matter if you are rewarded or not, then you're probably a writer. If you want to be a writer so you can be famous and have writerish friends and money and so forth and be on Oprah a couple of times, you probably are just having a nice daydream. Enjoy it, but don't take it too seriously.
Not all people become famous and not all writers become famous. Doing what you love should be its own reward, and this is especially true of the arts. Keep writing. Share and publish what you write, and you may be recognized. Or you may not. Either way you'll be doing what you love and that's more than 90% of the people on earth get to do.

What are your thoughts on Ghostwriters?I just started a portfolio for freelance writing and I've notice a lot of people asking for ghostwriters. An actual writer gets to do all the work for small pay and then sign away the book to a person who can put a face or name to it (whether they have...

How can I make a living as a writer in the real world?Other than the rags-to-riches stories we have all heard! How does one legitimately make a living from writing (non-fiction and scientific technical) without having to lean too heavily on a partner or work part-time in another occupation. I'm not...

Hi, everyone. Thank you in advance for reading; this is a little long-winded.When I was a kid, I loved writing books. I'd sit at the computer for hours, typing. I knew I was going to be a writer one day. Even my elementary school teacher said I had talent. When I was 22 I got a publishing contract...
