One of the reasons why you may have never gotten around to writing a book is because you doubt your ability to put pen to paper. This lack of confidence may be due to real, or just imagined, ideas about your writing abilities.
But, the thing is, even experienced writers can have doubt at times, so if you're sitting on the fence waiting for that moment when you'll be the best writer ever, that's never gonna happen.
Instead, focus on getting whatever it is that you want to say down on paper. Get your thoughts out of your head and onto that pad of paper, or computer screen. The instant you do that, you become a writer.
The only thing you need to work on from that point is improving the quality of what you write. The thing about writing is that the more of it you do, the better you'll become. Writing takes practice, practice and more practice.
So, do you have the right stuff to be a writer?
If you're willing to commit some time and attention to it, then . . .
Absolutely!
