FOR WRITERS

Writing a book is not easy, but is exciting and very fulfilling. There are a range of resources and lots of help available. Here are my few thoughts:

1. Write something everyday
2. Read especially in the genre you choose to write in
3. Get to know some other writers for support
4. Join an organisation such as Romance Writers New Zealand, Romance Writers Australia, Romance Writers of America for access to resources and a supportive community
5. Improve your writing by attending conferences and workshops and writing every day
6. There are many, many books out there about writing and writing systems. Find what works for you. A couple of my favorites are On Writing by Stephen King, Story by Robert McKee, Writing the Breakout Novel by Donald Maas
