Now anyone can...

Write.

Yes.

Anyone who can afford to buy a decent laptop can write.

As in, write, published and the works.

I found out how easy it was to have your works published as an e-Book. Now the only thing that you will have to think about is whether you want to earn revenue from it, or not.

When I was younger, I was given my youngest Aunt's typewriter. She studied office management in high school so when she graduated, she no longer needed the typewriter and decided to 'bestow' it upon me. I gleefully accepted.

It is just a matter of whether you have enough confidence and enough creativity to have your work published or not. A friend remarked that I might want to consider writing fiction and try to have it published online, or better, published as a book.

'Who knows, you may be the next JK Rowling.'

'I don't know if I would buy MY own book.' I said, with a smirk.

I smirk, a lot, when people tell me that I should record YouTube videos of me singing, because turned out (To them) that I can sing... decently.

Anything that requires me to be in that creative process, I will smirk. Should I resign to a lifetime of paper pushing and the endless hours of making raw meaningless data, meaningful? Should I cultivate an ambition of staying with a company for more than 5 years in the hope of being cross bordered overseas?

I really don't know. As a matter of fact, I don't actually know what I want to do, or end up as. All I know is that I am happy on my yoga mat, or meditating on a weekend for more than 20 minutes.

But who knows eh? I may just have a book published ... well.. about something... some time... in the future. Afterall, I have the typing speed of over 70-80 wpm. Should get that into profitable use, at least. :P
