Are you an ASPIRING WRITER? If so, do you think myLot will help you in getting

I'm not an aspiring writer, though the idea of writing a bestseller in some far away future has always been a vague dream of mine. Unfortunately, I neither have the discipline nor the commitment to make it happen. As for mylot.com helping a person realize their writing dreams, I think it can assist in some way and in some way sidetrack them away from it. Mylot.com can be a venue to express ideas and even discover a few. It is also a good tool to sharpen one's wit, display one's knowledge and share one's opinions. However, because of the nature of the forum, people here are not as concern with organization, style, and even simple grammar and mechanics, which unfortunately are non-negotiables for someone who really wants to make a career in writing. My best advice for someone who wants to write professionally is to spend more time practicing his craft in many ways than one, and he can include mylot.com in that bunch, but not all exclusively.

I am an aspiring writer, but I write romantic fiction. I don't know that MyLot will help me because it's so distracting! I love it on here and have had to force myself to spend less time here and get on with my writing. LOL. But I do love it here and my friends, so I won't be gone for long :)

I think you are right I may have a book some where in my head. My lot is helping me to realize my writing dreams someway. I really enjoy writing!

Hi, I am a freelance writer and have been a member of mylot for almost 2 weeks. I enjoy mylot because it gives me new things to think about and gives me a place where i can write down ideas and thoughts and have fairly intelectual answers :-)

I don't think that mylot is really going to do anything special for my writing career except maybe give me a little exposure. Oh yeah, and I will be able to stretch my writing muscles before I go to blog and write articles elsewhere. I agree that when I go to respond to certain topics I feel that my thoughts are right there and it is just the right time to have them flow out, and as I post they flow a little better.

MyLot is letting me realize how descriptive I need to be in my writing for it to engage an audience. I'm currently writing a children's story to hopefully be published by September, but I would love to get it published during late springtime or early summer.

I think spending some of your spare time on mylot does improve your literary skills. Mylot does have alot of discussions that you can draw ideas from for writing.
