Tips in Writing

To all my fellow budding authors out there, let me share with you some awesome tips :

1. Write what you know . That should always be our motto . Face it, you can't really write about adulthood when you're still a teenager .
2. Connect to your characters . This will help you to create complex and unique characters like real people . You should relate your characters to people you know.
3. Know your readers . Whether your book is targeted to little children or adults .
4. Decide your story's settings. If you're writing about olden days' society, you have to make sure everything fits .
e.g. The language that your characters use .
       The clothing.
         The lifestyle .
5. Don't let people tell you what to do with your story , unless you agree with the other people's ideas . It's your story. Not theirs. You're the author .
6. Keep yourself inspire . Do whatever that inspire you so that you can keep moving forward. Don't ever set a deadline unless it's compulmory . If there's a deadline , begin early so that you have enough time to write.
7. Read books from your favourite authors . You can learn a lot and then adopt your own personal writing style .

~Keep believing you can~ :)
