Tip No. One

As I've been going through and thoroughly editing not only all twenty-five of the stories I had at ffnet, but also the forty-three (or forty-four?) chapters of a story for someone who requested my skills as a beta-reader, I figured this was the best time to start posting some of the things I've learned from writing classes, workshops, professional

When I get an idea for writing when I'm out, it's usually something that inspires me, then I'll let it go into my mind and let the fantasy part and my imagination expand the idea

That's the best way to start out writing something. Because then not only are you inspired to write it, you also know where you're going with it, especially if you roll it around in your mind a lot.

I'm writing two fantasy books...One I have put so much work into, it even has a language I made up..It's crazy but it's so worth it

That's really awesome! I (as a reader) love it when writers put that much detail into their books. Even if I don't like the story, I can appreciate the thought, research and care that was put into it.

I used to be writing a few fiction stories (I can't help but love writing children's books), but all of what I was working on was lost when my computer crashed.

Might we be seeing your books on a shelf in a bookstore someday?

I'm trying to make it as interesting as possible...it's just, I have this amazing idea in my head but getting it out into words is bleeeh

I used to write a lot of anime pics but haven't for awhile, lol yet I still get reviews

I really hope so, I even had artists do drawings of some of the characters so far

I know that feeling all too well. Sometimes, I've found, that it's best to just get it written entirely and then go back and change things around to make it flow better or make it seem more interesting.

That's awesome! I really hope it all works out, I know I'll be among the first to buy your books!

I like making pieces of scenes and then sticking them in later on. Thank you! I'm going to try to work really hard on it and possibly have it out this year or next
