For anyone that decides they want to try writing, whether it is for fun or for monetary gain, I would advise a few different things to help the process both creatively, but also professionally.

The first is to get connected. It doesn’t matter if it’s through a local writers group at your library or bookstore in the town you are from, or if it’s with an online group through social media or other outlets; getting connected will help with almost everything that involves writing.

You can learn form others and pass on creative thoughts and story lines, get help with critiquing a plot or character that you are trying to build – but most of all, you can find friendship with like-minded people. Writing, even when for your own self pleasure isn’t always the easiest of tasks, therefore, finding help among other people that want to succeed like you do will be very beneficial for improvement and overall self esteem.

For those looking to be a little more hardcore about writing, these types of groups will allow you the opportunity to really find out what people think. If you want raw criticism, you can get it. If you need someone to be brutally honest with you, that in person group that you meet with will be the best place for you. Family and friends are fine for getting feedback, but trust someone you are not closely connected to for words that might sting, but also become the most constructive.

Finally, have fun with the process. Writing shouldn’t be a labor of labor (if I can say it that way). Writing should be a labor of fun, and happiness. Regardless of your writing experience, direction and motivation you should be able to feel happy about what you are doing. If you don’t – it might be time to reexamine why you write.

About the Author

RuthView all posts by Ruth
“Don’t bend; don’t water it down; don’t try to make it logical; don’t edit your own soul according to the fashion. Rather, follow your most intense obsessions mercilessly.” — Franz Kafka Ruth is an inspirational entertainment journalist who instinctively sees the best in all and seeks to share universal beauty, love and positivity. She is an artist who leads with her heart and gives readers a glimpse of the best of this world through the masterful use of the written word. Ruth was born in Tacoma, Washington but now calls Yelm, Washington her home. She lives on five acres with her parents, a dog, two miniature goats, cats and a teenage daughter who is a dynamic visual artist herself. Ruth interviews fellow artists both inside and outside of the film/television industry. At the core of all she does is the strength of her faith.
