So, first of all, how would one define ‘writing’? Well, if you ask me, I’d say that for me at least, writing is a essential need. I need to write as much as I need to breathe air. A friend of mine said, that she has no skill to write. I answered “No, you just don’t have exercise”. Here are some tips I gave her in order to improve her writing skills.
1. Hold a diary. Really, it helps! By writing your thoughts, your every-day life and new things that occur in your life, you will slowly create your own style and writing will come fun end easy for you
2. Read a lot! I’m serious about this one, people! Reading is really important… it teaches you, for example, how to structure your ideas and how to keep a balance between direct speech, narration and description. Which one is harder to do? That’s where you lack some skill. Which one is easier? That’s where you’re good!
3. Criticize yourself! What don’t you like? Erase it and reformulate it! I never said writing was easy!
4. it wouldn’t be bad, once you’ve written some short-stories to post them on an online writer community. there are plenty of such communities, and the best part, you get feedback from ordinary readers! You will see your mistakes and try to correct them for the sake of your possible fans.
5. Write, write, write! everything you see, everything you want. Just write!
So, I hope this was useful! See you next time!
