Listening to your manuscript read back to you is a great and FREE editing tool. #aspiringauthors #aspiringwriters #creativewriters #writers

I'm not saying writing is so easy that anyone can do it, that's not the case at all. Writing is a craft that needs to be exercised and studied often. Having a great story idea doesn't make a great writer, however, if you are indeed a writer and you're struggling with your story, then you're doing something wrong. If this is you, then maybe: 1. You're not really sure who you're writing this book for (who's your ideal reader?) 2. You don't know your characters well enough to write their story. 3. You haven't really thought through the plot and if it's thick enough to carry you through a whole book. These are just a few places to start. Take some time to make sure you really know the story you're trying to write and the audience you expect to read it. Make sure your characters are interesting and believable and there's enough drama (fiction writers). #aspiringwriters #aspiringauthors #creativewriters #creativewritings #creativewritersgroup #writerscommunity #writers

My new ebook. Thinking this will be a free giveaway 😊#writersofinstagram #creativewriting #aspiringauthors #writerscommunity #writers

Going from novel writer to scriptwriter was very challenging and very rewarding. Though the format is quite different, there are some things that are the same. Character development, plot, setting, pacing, dialogue, etc... Writing Secrets From the Bayou and seeing it play out on set, really gave me a deeper perspective of the elements of bringing a story to life. My writing has evolved and now I don’t just write as an author, I now write as a viewer, a reader, a director, and a videographer. All those roles are now in my head as I’m setting up a scene and writing dialogue. As I’m dressing my characters and deciding what angel I want my audience/reader to see. Writing will never be the same and I’m thankful for that 😊 #authors #writerscommunity #creativewriters #aspiringauthors #scriptwriting #scriptwriter

FICTION WRITING: Make sure you're not so consumed with dialogue that you forget your characters should have realistic qualities. People talk with their hands, tap the table with their fingers, foot tap against the floor, eyes roam around the rooms, scroll through their phone, etc... Your readers don't want to read pages and pages of just dialogue. #writerscommunity #writers #aspiringauthors #creativewriting

The rewarding road of becoming an author can be filled with many challenges. Using my knowledge of writing and film, I’m prepared to help you from planning to publishing. Are your characters well developed? Is your plot thick enough to carry out a story? Is there enough movement? Is the scene set up well? Is it a page-turner? My program is designed to help you make sure you tell a story your readers will love! Schedule a call so we can chat. Link in bio. #creativewriting #aspiringauthors #writerscommunity #writers
