Candid B On Ingrown Hair

David, I'd like to write to me

answer to David (the title of this post is the object of his mail), one of my twenty-five readers of Manzoni, who wrote to me:

Hello, my name is David
, I'm 28 years old and also I would like to become a professional. I love this sport and it is from 8 months to practice frequently at the moment are still 33 hc, I know the road is still long!
I also thought about writing a book myself, but then I do not know how it works, who do I go to publish it and all the dies you need to follow. Could you give me some tips if you do not ask too much? I also love to draw and I did not think even a bad cable cartoon ever on the course: What do you think ?!?!..
I would love to help in golf and I like to work but I do not know what could be done other than the master?!? and I still miss him very much ..
Thanks! David

First, David, thanks for the mail, which opens a subject dear to many.

In the email you speak of two different roads, although they can also cross to become a professional and write about golf.

How to become a professional, yet few are perhaps eight months to judge. My advice is to work hard, the results will soon be that speaks for itself: If the disability comes to a figure within a year, then the aspiration to professionalism would be unthinkable. Please note that the transition to professionalism requires a handicap not exceeding 4 and an age not exceeding 40 years. Consider also that reaching that level takes years of constant practice, which is said to be rewarded in some way. (This is usually turned professional who started playing as a child.)

but must weigh the pros well (in fact) and cons: because of the professional life is not as rosy as it may seem from the outside. How many are in fact, professionals who live by the their game (lessons included)? And how long do it? So if you have this dream that grow well, provided they fit well on your own and do not lose sight of the reality in front of you.

The second point is that it touches the writing of course. In this case what I always do is, first, to discourage any form of enthusiasm: assuming you have an original content and can affect a sufficient number of readers, if your name does not say anything to a publisher is highly unlikely that you'll be taken into account.

But if you really believe you have interesting things to say, then a blog might be a first response: a free and easy way you can afford, when treated as they should, to compete with your readers and see if you really write about golf is that you want to do.

That said, if it's the passion that guides you, the only advice I can give you is to follow - though - your instincts. Go! And when you get there let us know!
