So, You Want to Be a Writer?
What are some tips on becoming a writer?
⒈Read everything you can. Most writers are good readers. They read because they love to lose themselves in books. They like the sounds of language and the way that reading a good description can feel as satisfying as winning a race or eating really good food. . Do you like stories that are fast-paced and full of unexpected twists? Do you prefer to read books with characters who seem like someone you might know? Do you like to feel scared or do you like a story that makes you laugh until you cry? Think about the types of writing you like best, and try to identify the qualities that attract you.
⒉ It's easy to forget a good idea if you do not record it immediately. If you get in the habit of carrying a notebook or journal with you everywhere you go, you can write down anything you want to remember. When you are talking to friends in the cafeteria or waiting for the bus, something might give you an idea for a character or a scene in a story. You might have a dream you don't want to forget, or you might just write down the lyrics of a song you love.
⒊Do your homework. If you decide that you would like to submit your work for publication, make sure you do your research. If you are sending your writing to a magazine, look through old issues. If you are submitting to a book publisher, explore their website to make sure your material is similar to (but not exactly the same as) other books they publish.
⒋Stay positive. A writer's life can be frustrating. Sometimes it's hard to sit down and write. This is why perseverance is an important quality for a writer to have.
A. Talk to friends.
B. Keep a notebook.
C. As you read, pay attention to what speaks to you.
D. You may get many refusals before you receive a single acceptance.
E. Does it seem like your writing fits in with other stories or articles?
F. These everyday thoughts and observations can be material for your writing one day.
G. Writing is a good way to clear your mind and make room for more of the "good stuff".
