Confidence Is Key To Success Whether You Are A Young Novice Or Writing In Retirement

Filed under Writing and Speaking

Self confidence is an essential ingredient in building a wanna-be writer’s success.

Young writers have energy and enthusiasm and hopefully the ability to succeed in this challenging field. Retirees bring a lifetime of experience and professional knowledge to the task. Harnessing any of those attributes requires self-confidence.

Unfortunately, no matter what their age, many would-be authors find their self confidence withers when they actually sit down to write and come face-to-face with a blank computer screen.

There’s a very simple secret to developing a positive self-image as an author. Write, write and write some more. Well known novelist Lawrence Block states it well, “We develop (writing) by practicing it. Whatever writing we do helps us to become better writers.”

How To Get Your Articles Accepted

Filed under Writing and Speaking

One of the best available techniques to advertise your online business is through article marketing. It works much better than placing classified or solo ads. When you place a solo ad, it will work for you only on the day that it is published. But your articles can benefit you for months or even years to come. And the best part, article marketing is free if you write them yourself.

Many people have trouble getting article directories to accept their work. There are many reasons for this. Most large directories receive hundreds or even thousands of submissions each week. They want quality articles, but unfortunately, they do not have the time to make corrections on the many articles that they receive.

Aligning Subjects And Verbs

Filed under Writing and Speaking

Overview of the problem
Perhaps you’ve seen this mistake: “Walking down the street, the stroller lost a wheel.” This sentence implies that the stroller is walking down the street, which would be a very interesting sight, indeed. The problem is that the implied subject of the introductory phrase does not match the grammatical subject of the main sentence, the stroller. The writer knows what he/she means, but the reader may be confused. (Isn’t grammar fun?). Editing this sentence will help the reader understand what you are trying to say, which is the purpose of editing.

Scene Constructing Your Fantasy Novel

Filed under Writing and Speaking

The importance of plotting, scene construction, and narration when writing your fantasy novel.

You may have read interviews from many authors who state that they place less effort on the plot outline than the actual writing of their novels. You will also find that many of these same authors regret that they did not learn the art of plotting early in their writing experiences, and do admit to finding dead scenes and stray ends at the completion of their novels. Fantasy writers simply cannot afford to skip the plotting process. Certainly you may revise your plot during the process; in fact you should as you find new directions and interesting inclusions.

Defining And Writing For An Audience

Filed under Writing and Speaking

As part of the essential research you should do before starting to write, it’s a good idea to begin by defining your audience - the people who will read, see or hear the message in your content. Although often taken for granted, this process is crucial to achieving effective writing - and everything related to what you write will flow out of it. Entire advertising and marketing campaigns have failed due to a lack of understanding of the target audience, so it pays to get it right.

Impersonations 101 - Dramatize Your Speech Or Presentation With Other Characters

Filed under Writing and Speaking

Not everybody could, or should be Rich Little (I actually like some of his impersonations better than him, if you care.) However, he was a master at taking-on other characters. You will not necessarily aspire to showbiz quality impersonations, but you can give your other voices their own voice. Let’s back up just a bit. Your presentation, let’s call it a speech for the moment, but whether it is a motivational speech or a techy-one it should always have other “points of view.” I take the position as an actor - as most scripts have different points of view - the actor must assume a slightly different persona for each. This is simply effectuated with a shift in voice, posture and facial expression. That’s mostly it. Some people advocate, just look in the mirror and practice making faces. This is not my method but I am an advocate of “if it works - work it.”
