Thankful for Being a Writer


by Linda Gilden @LindaGilden

“How can you sit all day in front of your computer and write?” 

“Don’t you get lonely or tired of not seeing anyone else but your computer?” 

“I love your writing, but it must be a terribly hard thing to do.” 

I’ve had many people ask me these and many similar questions. From friends to family to strangers in the grocery store, they are astounded that the solitary writing life seems so fun and fulfilling to me.

This is the month we focus on being thankful and I have to say that after my Savior, husband, family, and friends, next on the list would have to be my writing. I am so thankful I get to spend my days writing for the Kingdom and being a missionary in print. There are many aspects to be thankful for as a writer and I am always happy to share them.
