Writing is easy. Every first grade student can do it. However, being a good writer is another thing. If you want your works to be published, there are some things you need to consider.
1.) Read- Not just reading a few articles a day. When I say read, it means at least three to four hours each day of your life. You will never be a good writer if you’re not a good reader.
2.) Practice- Make it a daily habit to write something in your journal or blog. There are many things to write about! It will also help you establish writing discipline and help you find your own style.
3.) Familiarize- Read books and articles about the publishing world. It never hurts to get yourself acquainted with what the editors look for. If you can’t get a magazine for writers, search the web! Also, it’ll be great if you have a friend who has knowledge about writing. Or, you can send an email to your favorite writers. Some of them will actually answer your questions.
4.) Group- Join or organize a group where you can all share your ideas. You’ll be surprised at how many people want the same dream you’re having. If you have friends who are willing to join you, great! But if you don’t, do not be discouraged. We are in the computer age and you can find thousands of writing groups in the internet.
