Day One

Hello blog world.

This is my first post, my first attempt at a blog. I know it's 2010 I should be used to the concept of one of these things. My name is Brianne Cole, you don't know me and thats fine I'm not here to give you my life story. Although if the mood does strike I will use some blog entries to introduce you to my world, show you aside of me that wont come out in my typical posts. I am here to write about my attempt at becoming a writer.

The point of this blog is strictly to chronicle my attempt at chasing my dream. I have always loved writing, it has always been an escape for me. It's a way to create a whole world without having to deal with the most of the time depressing life that we all lead. Don't get me wrong I'm not saying life is complete shit and the only way to feel happy is to escape to my room with a notebook and pen. All I'm saying is that when life has been hard on me writing has always been a way to keep life from knocking me down. It has only recently occurred to me that if I really wanted to do this for a living, I could. I had always used the same excuse "Everybody's a writer" or my favorite "I'll get a real job". In reality writing has always been a very private thing to me, I never tell people I do it and I have no intent on showing anyone I personally know this blog.

I am fully aware that these days making a career out of being a writer is very hard and that is why I want to make it very clear that this blog is not based on my goal to become a well payed writer. This is strictly my dream of being a published writer. I want to have something with my name on it, and god willing one day have a book on the shelves of the local book store, hell at this point I would be more then happy to have something in the clearance bin.

As for this poor attempt at a first blog, please be gentle I'm sure it wont take me long to get in the swing of things. If you are reading this and you do not know me personally thank you for giving me a second of your time, if you do know me personally I love and appreciate the support.
See you on day two.
