I am new to writing but, everyone says i have a talent for it. My mother was a poet for a while and won a lot of prizes. I hope to make it a step further- no, 10 steps further. Personally I would love to become the next Suzanne Collins, Veronica Roth, or James Dashner (in girl form). Anyways, I just want help from other writers to see if I am actually worth something to keep trying so hard. To know if it should be hobby or a possible career.
