I chose 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐲𝐰𝐫𝐭𝐞 (stay-write) for all the writers dreaming of being recognized, being loved by their own readers, and seeing their own handwritten stories turned into published books.
𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐲 : 𝐉𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐤𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐝𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐦 𝐨𝐟 𝐰𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠. It means I want you to stay- stay in your seat while you work hard to pursue your dream of becoming a well-known author. Stay, do not give up.
𝐖𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞 : 𝐖𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞! 𝐏𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐚𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐟𝐮𝐥 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐟𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐝 ; 𝐠𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞. Write! You have the freedom to write any story you want. Even if it's difficult, even if only a few people are reading, keep writing. Continue to write. If writing is your passion and your love, the number of readers should never be a barrier or a reason to stop. Always remember that if you have confidence in what you create, if you know your work is good - you will eventually attract true readers who will genuinely love you. You don't need to beg, you don't need to plead for support. Your writing is your treasure, so you never have to beg for reads.
𝐀𝐃𝐕𝐈𝐂𝐄 :
I'm not saying you should just sit there doing nothing. What I mean by "sitting" is to stay committed, stay dedicated to your journey as an author.
But that doesn't mean begging or pleading for an audience. That is not the kind of "hard work" that earns you loyal readers, there is a better way.
Edit your story, create a dedicated writing account to recommend your work, and remember that every great author started exactly where you are now. They didn't beg for readers, they worked on their craft until the right audience found them and fell in love with their stories.
