Not for me. #writetip Writing does require many hours working alone, but that does not mean it’s a lonely profession.
Let’s face it, social networking keeps a writer from being isolated. An awesome writing community is available at the touch of your keyboard. The trick is not to spend so much time networking that you don’t to write.
Then there is the research. Interviewing experts in any area is always enlightening. When you find an expert passionate about their subject, the excitement follows.
How about all the hours spent talking with friends, family, and other writers about your manuscript? That’s definitely not lonely.
It’s a wonder any of us find the time to get words on a page, and when we do, we get to spent time with our characters.
So who has time to be lonely?

I think the hours of writing alone require a lot of discipline in order to be successful. Something you are very good at doing!

How can you be lonely when you’re surrounded by all the wonderful characters that you love? I agree Blogs are helpful. None of my friends are writers, so they really can’t relate.
