The Conversation<br />
How many times have you had doubts about your ability to write? Once a week,<br />
every day, every minute! RJ Simon takes a look at that self-doubting voice we all<br />
have.<br />
But I don’t feel like a real ‘writer’!<br />
Well why not?<br />
Writers are special. People can’t just *become* writers. You either are a<br />
writer or you’re not...<br />
Can you elaborate on that?<br />
Writers are like mythical creatures. We see them sitting around in black<br />
and white photos at fine wooden desks laden with typewriters, quills, and<br />
perfectly angled ink black words scrolled beautifully on piles of parchment<br />
paper. A single cat curls up neatly by their feet. They stroke beards, puff<br />
on their writerly pipes, as they gaze all knowingly through their glasses out<br />
the window and down upon the world beyond their rich leather clad<br />
library. It’s all so perfect.<br />
