What I Want As A Writer
It’s a logical question and it is often asked of me: What do you want as a writer? As a broad question, it probably deserves a broad answer. However, I am succinct in my approach to most things so here goes.
As a writer, I am not seeking fame. I had my share of that in surfing five decades ago and as a songwriter and playwright four decades ago. That was enough. No, I am not a writer for any sort of fame. Besides, the whole fame thing is way over-rated.
What about fortune? Again, a blunt no will suffice. I have priced my entire Kindle catalog at a mere $2.99 which means I make about two bucks a book. A fortune is not made by collecting chump change from Amazon. I could make more money getting a job at the local Dollar Store. I am financially secure enough so that option is a non-starter. So I’m not a writer for the money.
Then what exactly do I want as a writer? The answer is simple: I want to connect with as many people in this world as I possibly can and through my writing bring a little joy, perspective, information and delight into their lives. It really is just that simple.
Here is my current offering through Amazon.com. It consists of eight books written to appeal to diverse audiences: https://www.amazon.com/Allen-E.-Rizzi/e/B00B3L8PYS/ref=ntt_athr_dp_pel_1
If one these books will bring just a little joy, perspective, information or delight into your life, my job has been done well and that is what I want as a writer. Please read one of these books soon and make my day.
