7| Become an Author
Now this may feel overwhelming but it's still possible. Any one with a decent know-how of English can become an author. Trust me.
It's only about your imagination and creativity.
However, publishing your own book through a recognized publisher is tough. With Internet more and more people have the luxury to publish their work and test waters before diving further. Also, with the turn of this decade, self-publishing is a concept which is also gaining more and more ground.
Another aspect of thinking to become an author is that you don't have to leave your current job. On the side, you can try your hand at writing a novel, at least you can start by writing a short story. Like this one which I have written: Baba: Short Story of a Dog
Send me a free copy when you write your novel!
