GENREALITY

Keep Smiling

Diana isn’t feeling so hot so I thought I’d drop in and share a few tips that I’ve picked up over the past week. And because I’m trying to very hard not to give in to that 97% (you’ll get that in a minute) I’m going to do it with photos.

Right? This is important. As a reader I hate it when info dumps kill a story, so why would I do it as a writer? It is hard to remember sometimes, but very important. :)

Get it now? Yes, I love the internet, and it is a big part of my life and career as a writer, but nothing is as important to that part of my life as actually doing the work.

Lastly, and one I think should never be forgotten…

Now, go forth, and write Bravely!

Have a good Friday!

    I totally agree with the internet one. It’s why I have my partner turn the internet off during writing time :mrgreen:

    These are great. The internet is a particularly powerful distraction for me. Writing bravely is fine advice. It reminds me, too, of Barbara Ueland’s advice from her classic book, If you want to be a writer, “Be a lion, be a pirate, when you write.” Be brave.
