A Year of Trying


A Year of Trying, by Dom Conlon

Trying to get things together in terms of my writing is a tough old cookie to crack. I wrote an article about my ‘Year of Trying’ which outlines the ways and obstacles I’m facing. Here’s a snippet but follow the link to read the entire thing:

“‘I am a writer’ is a difficult phrase. For twenty years I have earned my money by writing. I have written stories for video games, advertising copy, technical manuals, and radio and TV commercials. I have written a number of picture books, a poetry book, and share hundreds of poems and stories on my website.

I am a writer.

I am a writer in every sense — except for the fact that despite all of this, I still don’t feel like one.

Not really.”

Keep reading the many stories and poems I’ve already published here, and check back often for new ones.
