Good day Steem users, being short, this section is most of all for people who would like to improve their writing skills and feel that their texts and the idea behind those texts do not fit. I intend to show here a system that will help you canalize all the energy you wish to put on your writing skills. Interested in novels, news, letters or academic essays? These are my principles:
A WRITER IS A PERSON THAT IS SURROUNDED AND WITHIN THE ACT OF WRITING: You already see the world as a writer, you put events on letters to create words that make sequential sense, but one thing i took a while to understand is that i can not express reality on my writings, i can only express points of view. Things are divided in those we PERCEIVE, and those we IMAGINE. These two are, in my opinion, the TOOLS of a writer (and i would say even, the tools all artist share).
IMPROVE WRITING: Study your favourite authors. They all had to find their own style of wiritng, one that fits their personal experience on life, and you can decipher this way of writing (includes everything, the use of grammar points, spaces, if the protagonist is on the story or narrating it from a 3rd person view) and create your own!
(Find or create?, could it be both?).YOUR WRITINGS ARE REAL: Whatever you write, whether you do it chatting or on bathrooms, defines your personality. If you dont like your writings take it as an oportunity to explore what you would change about yourself.
KNOW WHAT INSPIRES YOU: Make it personal, to the point that you would never show it to anybody. I remember realizing that all my writings would horribly shock my own mother (and to her I owe it all). Do not restrict your thoughts to no matter, you must be able to make your mind create horrors, so it can create magic.
GOALS: Would you like to make people enjoy your writings? Maybe make them aware of things that usually goes by unnoticed? You wish to make money? Be famous?
All above?
Well, there are no guarantees, so i would rather ask: Would i write despite not getting any of those?
