The best way to start a career in writing is to create a portfolio of your work. This can include anything from short stories, essays and articles to poems or scripts. Once you have a good selection of pieces, it’s important to get them out there. Consider submitting them to literary magazines, online publications, newspapers and other media outlets. Additionally, joining writing groups or organizations can be beneficial as they provide networking opportunities and feedback on your work. Finally, don't forget to network with people in the industry and attend conferences or workshops related to writing.
