Hi, I'm Daniel. I am a 28 year-old who is seeking to improve his writing. However, I am aware of the implications of simply writing in the dark and then sending off material. I don't believe that I can/will learn the best in this fashion. Therefore, I am looking for someone to take me under their wing in the general sense. Someone to show me the ropes of everything to strengthen the foundations of my skills and development as a, hopefully, future writer.
What I would imagine, though I have not done this before, is that I keep writing pieces and show them to said mentor and improve along the way. I would think that it would work as a sense as they point out all the things I've done wrong and then I rewrite it. Then, when said piece is done, we move on to the next piece. The key, I imagine, is to master all the elements of writing (grammar, syntax, characterization, plot, etc) in order to make me more qualified to pursue my dream.
I've never had a mentor before, but I'd be willing to put in much effort for the task. This could also be the start of something great methinks-- reminds me of a movie plot. Nevertheless, I understand that the road ahead will be rife with challenges and complications, yet I am willing to give it my best shot. I am a dedicated, persevering and hard-working individual. I take writing seriously-- there is no doubt about that.
I am hoping that an experienced writer would be willing to help guide me so that I don't become lost along the way.
Fingers crossed!
