Some Writing Tips
| Category: Copy Writing | Date: 2003-02-19 |
My advice for aspiring writers is as follows...
* Write something every day.
* "Remember that getting published takes commitment and hard work.
* Learn patience
* Treat writing as your career.
* Be open to criticism
* Listen to your heart. Write what you love - not what the MARKET wants.
* Learn everything you can about the writing "business".
* Join a writers' association and mix with other strange "arty farty intellectual types".
* "Write as you talk yourself."- Maeve Binchy.
* Write as honestly as you can.
Writers help people to see the world differently. Make your story real. Be totally honest to the story that is being told. My "journey" of my various books is my life journey.
Always remember,
* Writing is hard (and sustained) work - a writer has to work hard every day, even when one does not feel inspired. So I make sure I'm inspired at 7am each day.
* Small ideas become bigger, when you leave to your creative subconscious mind. Seek inspiration (from within and or externally from God, "the Ultimate Source") regularly.
* Revise your work constantly; but one has to "call a halt" sometime.
* Strive for perfection, but accept excellence in your writing.
* Believe in yourself.
Remember that dreams can come true in your writing... and in your life.
Happy writing
