The Best Writing tips:

"Writing is something you do alone. It's a profession for introverts who wanna tell you a story but don't want to make eye contact while doing it" - John Green.

This quote describes me well, as i'm sure it applies to a lot of writers.  I'm usually a shy person, and kept my writings to myself, out of fear of rejection or being made fun of.  But thanks to a friend's suggestion, I decided to start blogging. 

What I did first, though, is write down every possible tip I could find about writing. I think a part of me was stalling, because sometimes beginnings are scary. 

So here are some Writing Tips that I found helpful. Hope you like them!


  1. Write everyday, even if only for a minute
  2. Don't write to impress others
  3. Remain true to yourself and what you believe
  4. Use a pen and paper, staring at a screen sucks your creativity
  5. You don't have to start at the beginning
  6. Abandon the idea that you will ever finish
  7. You won't and can't please everyone
  8. Reading books will help you become a better writer
  9. Don't be afraid to write about ordinary things
  10. Write things about your Character (Keep it to yourself) that the reader will never know. Helps you create the character.
  11. There is going to be many rewrites, no one can right a perfect chapter in the first sit down. 
  12. Last but not least:  Enjoy your story! If you find it boring, chances are your reader will too.
I hope you find this helpful! Let me know if you have any tips you might want me to add!
