Helping Those Who Follow

A few days ago, my daughter, talked to a man whose creative son was having trouble finding help and a place on the web to publish some of his writing.

In my writing kids blog this week I invited him to send some of his work to this website. I am so driven to help young writers prepare for the world in which all of us struggle to get our work published. We know that we will not continue to live forever and that we will not be able to write everything in the world there is to write. At conferences and as individuals we help each other learn and improve our writing. It is even more important that we do the same for the young people who desire to follow us. These youngsters are our future. They are the ones who will write the books and the articles of tomorrow. Their eyes will see things as we have never seen them, just as we are doing for our ancestors.

Keep your ears and eyes open, my friends. Watch for the writers who will follow in our footsteps and climb beyond us. Help them along the way.
