20 Writing Tips for New Writers

 Here are some 20 writing tips for new writers:

1. Read Widely:

• Read a variety of genres and styles to expose yourself to different writing techniques and voices.

2. Write Regularly:

• Establish a writing routine. Consistency is key to improving your skills.

3. Set Realistic Goals:

• Break down your writing goals into manageable tasks. This makes the writing process less daunting.

4. Find Your Voice:

• Experiment with different styles until you discover a voice that feels authentic to you.

5. Edit and Revise:

• Writing is rewriting. Don't be afraid to edit and revise your work. It's a crucial part of the writing process.

6. Accept Constructive Criticism:

• Seek feedback from others and be open to constructive criticism. It's an invaluable tool for growth.

7. Join Writing Communities:

• Connect with other writers. Online and local writing communities provide support, advice, and opportunities for collaboration.

8. Learn the Craft:

9. Observe the World:

• Pay attention to the details of the world around you. Observation enhances your ability to create vivid and realistic settings.

10. Don't Fear the First Draft:

• The first draft is about getting your ideas on paper. It doesn't have to be perfect. Give yourself permission to write poorly at first.

11. Read Aloud:

• Reading your work aloud can help you catch awkward phrasing, errors, and get a sense of the flow.

12. Stay Inspired:

• Find inspiration in everyday life, art, music, and other forms of creativity. Keep a journal for jotting down ideas and observations.

13. Set Aside Your Work:

• After completing a draft, take some time away from it before revising. This helps you approach your work with fresh eyes.

14. Don't Compare Yourself to Others:

• Every writer has their own journey. Avoid the trap of comparing yourself to more experienced writers. Focus on your growth.

15. Celebrate Small Achievements:

• Acknowledge and celebrate your progress. Whether it's completing a chapter or receiving positive feedback, small victories matter.

16. Embrace Rejection:

• Rejection is part of the writing journey. Use it as motivation to improve and persist in your craft.

17. Stay Curious:

• Cultivate curiosity. Explore new topics, ask questions, and let your inquisitive nature fuel your creativity.

18. Protect Your Writing Time:

• Guard your writing time from distractions. Treat it as sacred and prioritize your creative pursuits.

19. Experiment with Genres:

• Don't be afraid to try writing in different genres. Experimenting can help you discover what resonates with you.

20. Believe in Yourself:

• Believe in your ability to grow and improve as a writer. Confidence is a powerful motivator.

Remember, writing is a journey, and everyone progresses at their own pace. Enjoy the process, and don't be too hard on yourself. Happy writing!

To her sister and her mother. The people and the place she left to marry her dream man. The man who left her and their daughter for another woman.

Josephine was about to become a mail order bride and Camille and Eleanor would have to go with her to Kansas.

Dead Time: an afterlife campus love story

A young girl killed when the campus was still a farm. A sizzling college romance—but every time they kiss—the dead girl is watching them…

Joan is a radiant but quiet young woman on campus. She’s been dating someone at the football fraternity whose brothers keep other guys away from her. Tim is a loner who falls in love with her anyway.

The first time they kiss is alongside the main road under the giant oaks that shelter the campus. At the end of the block, Tim sees a young girl staring—her head cocked oddly to one side as if it’s been broken. He realizes she’s the child who years before died tragically after she fell off a tractor and was run over by a harrow. 

When she keeps appearing before him, Tim grasps that he’s the only one that can actually see her—and that she’s warning him. Again. And again.

What is she trying to tell him?

Joseph Eastburn also writes thrillers. In reviewing his first novel, "Kiss Them Goodbye," re-released in 2016 by HarperCollins, The Armchair Detective wrote, “One of the most thoroughly bizarre mystery/ suspense novels in quite some time, creating and eerie, atmospheric, and compulsively readable tale… a gripping, intriguing book… This is a writer to watch."

ABOUT THIS BOOK

36 Song Arrangement Tips for the Small Recording Studio is a straight-to-the-point compilation of song arrangement techniques that will help you create great song productions.

However, 36 Song Arrangement Tips for the Small Recording Studio is formatted into an easy-to-read, tips-based book that is a perfect companion in the studio for the song-writer, producer or mixing engineer. Included in this book are brand new tips not covered in the author’s previous book, and each tip is topped off with a summary of key points and suggestions on how to apply the tips to your own songs.

ARRANGEMENT IS A CRITICAL PART OF THE SONG PRODUCTION PROCESS WHICH IS REGULARLY OVERLOOKED IN LESS PROFESSIONAL MUSIC PRODUCTIONS 

For the small studio operator, focusing only on the mix, the recording or the master is simply not enough if you want to craft great music. Implementing good arrangement techniques can enhance an original composition well beyond its original intentions, creating a song production that can hook your audience and have them coming back for more. 

GREAT ARRANGEMENT CAN MASSIVELY IMPROVE A SONG PRODUCTION 

From refining the structure and improving artist performance, to optimising repetition and developing the lead elements, arrangement is a critical key to crafting engaging music. Further refinement can be done by such things as focusing on ‘clash detection’, ‘filling the holes’, and visually mapping the dynamic energy flow of a song. These concepts and many more are covered in this book.

Each tip has an overview, a short and detailed explanation with examples, and all topped off with a brief summary and ideas on how to apply the tip.
