The challenge of being a writer
Writing is a complex and challenging skill that for many, it is a difficult and painstaking process. As a writer, you must master the skill of being able to express yourself. The everyday challenge of being a writer is how to express oneself with the perfect words.
This is especially true when writing about emotions, as many people feel like their words are not reaching the hearts of those who read their work. Writers are often faced with the everyday challenge of being a writer, but it's not all bad.
Writing is one of the most rewarding careers that you can have, and it is something that can be done at any age. It takes a lot of emotional labor to write about difficult emotions. It's hard to find the right words and it's hard to put them down on paper.
It's even harder when you're writing about someone else's emotions and also being a writer is not easy and it takes a lot of work.
It is not easy to make a living off of writing. It is important to be aware of the work involved in the career and the time it takes to make a living from writing. It is not something you should take lightly. It is best to do your research before you take on the challenge. Also, it is best to be realistic about what you can make from writing.
As a newbie to the field, you may feel a lot of pressure to produce work that is good enough to impress potential publishers or agents. If you're struggling to find your voice, or you're unsure of how to write for an audience, or you're having a hard time finding your niche don't just give up and continue with the good work because there's always a reward that awaits soon to be achieved.
Though we learn everyday and also we make mistakes but that shouldn't stop us from putting our best to be better. The challenges will surely come but when your determined to achieve a positive result someday then the challenges probably would act as a step in achieving that goal.
Writing is rewarding indeed as difficult as well. All of a sudden the words you speak so fluently will all disappear from your head and you’re just there staring at a blank screen.
Personally, I don’t think I would ever be a professional creative writer because the expectations and scrutiny that comes with it is just too much.
I prefer my writing to flow naturally and casually, and I’m okay even if it’s only one person that understands me. Writing is fun for me because I like to play with words.
Like you said, we have to put in the necessary work.
Have a nice day.

It is really challenging but can be fun most times and the best thing is just to deliver the best you can to relate with others.
Yeah it can be fun; it’s always great doing what you love and deriving satisfaction and value from it.
It was nice reading you friend.

It's a pleasure and thanks for stopping by.
I agree. The two things that help me are to write constantly and to always follow a process.
Yeah following those steps will really help a lot
That's one of the reasons I started writing years ago on Blogger. I wanted the challenge of writing live on the web, but didn't tell anybody at first because I wanted the space to be able to make my mistakes in peace.
Sort of like walking a tightrope a foot off the floor in your bedroom. If you fall off, almost no one notices, and you have the ability to get better over time.
Once my writing improved, I began letting some friends know and asked for their honest feedback. After awhile I began to attract the attention of someone from a developing country who scraped my blog and stole my content, presenting it as his own.
Dealing with the cumbersome reporting process caused me to leave Blogger and a few years later, two of my favorite things: Blogging and crypto were combined in Steemit, and the rest as they say, is history. :)

There's is a lot to be experienced in the journey of becoming a good writer especially the challenges involve. It either makes you derive the idea to quit or give up in the process but with time if the consistent practice is put in place there is definitely a change to discover someday. I am glad you've found your rhythm and your not doing bad all.
Yay! 🤗
