What Is The Secret For Writing

The secret to writing is simply writing. Yes,
jot thoughts down.
"I don't have any." You mumbled.
Record names of objects from the room
you are sitting in. What would the first
item you typed be, do in a thriller or essay.
In other words, how would you intertwine it
into great writing?

How To Stop Writer's Block

Play a word game. Run your eyes across the room,
and stop. What do you see? Take whatever your
eyes focused on and write about it.
The technique works when you have something
to write about, but don't know where to start.
Simply, jot down thoughts.

When To Critique Your Work

There are a few who can write a perfect first
draft. The rest of us have to edit our work.
The best time to look for grammatical errors,
run-on sentences, etc is two, three, sometimes,
even a week after you have written the original.
Why? It allows you to come-back refreshed.
You had a break, and are better able to detect
mistakes.

What Am I

I am drank mostly in hot weather. My origin
is Southern United States, alcoholic beverage.
Most became aware of me in 1800.

Answer: Mint Julep

A thriller comes to my mind when I think
of what could have happened during the
development stage. What do you think?

How To Self Edit

Have you written a moving piece of
fiction or non-fiction? It will be after
the cutting process. Why?

The first draft curves and creates.
Check for sentence structure,
unneccessary paragraphs, poor
characterication, and/or weak
writing.

How? Read each word outloud,
slowly. Hear the grammatical
errors? Weak writing?
