I apologize for the long period. It has been some trying past months. I have recently taken a creative writing course on fantasy and young adult literature. It just ended last Monday. I have learned quite a bit on how to continue with writing my novel. I am on the third draft now and I am able to approach far better than before. There are two things I have learned and I wish to share them with you all:
1. Exercise - Any skill or ability we have is our weapon or tool in to survive in this world. Like any weapon or tool, they need to be sharpened in order to work properly and effectively as well as to make the stronger. Working out helps athletes keep their good shape and help them succeed in their fields. Writing is similar, but instead of a gym you have a journal or something to keep writing almost everyday. Also there are exercises to help strengthen your story writing too. If you wish to know specifics then ask me below and I will find a way to provide them.
2. Companionship - Find others who also share the same interest. Not just in writing, but in your writing genre. If you are into writing romance novels than you need to be around people who like to write romance novels too. I like fantasy and writing high fantasy. So I have to find people who want to write high fantasy too. Here I have succeeded, well not fully yet, but almost.
Hope all your summer fun is going well. Happy Independence Day to my fellow United Americans!
