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:

    • Invest time in learning the basics of storytelling, grammar, and style. Understanding the fundamentals will strengthen your writing.

  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!

Romantic Suspense Books 1: OBSESSED (gripping psychological suspense romantic crime thriller dark conspiracy mystery romance novels free on kindle unlimited Billionaire Playboy)


Romantic Suspense Books 1: OBSESSED (gripping psychological suspense romantic crime thriller dark conspiracy mystery romance novels free on kindle unlimited Billionaire Playboy)

Tarago Jakobus was 6’4”, intelligent, extremely wealthy with a Midas touch. 
He was also openly racist, politically incorrect and a chauvinistic pig who told offensive jokes. 
He loved to party and was used to women vying for his attention. 
So when his eyes fell on Tanin, he expected her to just melt into his bed and be grateful that he even looked her way. 
To his utter surprise, she was totally unimpressed with his wealth, thought he was an uneducated buffoon and publicly rejected him. 
Of course he was shocked and humiliated by her response. 
But no woman had ever turned Tarago down before, and he found her fascinating. He became obsessed with her and decided to win her over his way – destroy all that is precious to her, so that she would have no choice but to need him. 
If that didn’t work, he’d switch to plan ‘B’ – take away her freedom and throw her ass in jail. 
And being the absolute bastard that he was, he did. 

Obsessed With Me is a modern-day, interracial / multiracial love story. 

Reviews: 
"Can I rate 6 stars, maybe even 7 stars? How do you do it? Everytime you amaze me at how good you are at writing, you pull me into the story and even after I stop reading, the story is still in my head! Well done!! I have only one problem, WHEN can I read part two?? 
(reviewed the day of purchase)" 

"Tarago is a bad boy. By far one of the baddest bad boys I have ever stumbled upon. I loved him, though!" 

“Thank you for giving me hope that there are people who can write juicy stories. I was getting bored with modern day romance. Keep it hottt.” 

"I definitely enjoyed it, I had a great time reading it. And I'm really looking forward to read the next book. You left me here hanging Eve!!!! 
(reviewed the day of purchase)" 

"I love it!! When can I get book two?" 

"I discovered Eve on Monday, I'm reading some of her ebooks, yet again. I plan to also get the other books. Wow!!!" 

"This Author got my attention,never heard of her till yesterday,but I will be buying more books from her." 

"Tanin is a college student, Tarago is an alpha male jerk. Together they will keep you reading."

"Kept me up till 2 AM. Loved it! Careful though, must be able to stand full-on racism. Not for the faint-hearted." 

Warning: Contains violence, strong language, racial themes and sex scenes, 

Author's Note: This book is set in South Africa in 1993 before Nelson Mandela was made president and has depicts racism between all races in South Africa. 
Having experienced racism first hand (I was thrown out of KFC for being the wrong colour) my experiences tend to infiltrate my works of fiction. If reading about racism offends you, you might want to pass on this book. 
This is a two-part series and book two is available. 
Hope you enjoy this love story. :)

The Long Return Home

What a lot of meetings there are in our life! Experiences, people, ways of doing. A group of friends on holiday; here Laurence will meet his future wife, Frances, a determined ,career and well-to-do girl, that debates her life with herself; perhaps an ordinary life, with ups and downs, some vicissitudes and an unconsumed betrayal. She loses her certainties for a man, for an overpowering love. A family, two daughter who help to understand the meaning of life. Two lively and sweet children who with their behaviours and their questions express innocence and desire to know. The balance of this life, this story, will be upset, everything will be mixed in a past present and the future, that dream, will be realized. Everything will have a new unforeseen meaning. Only at the end everything will make sense, and will start.

152 Jokes for Old School: Funny, dirty, clean jokes for young and old.

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00PNWT7MW/ 
This is a part II of the joke series. Every joke in this joke book was written down almost 30 years ago. Most of them came from my Grandpa‘s mouth . I hope you will find something to laugh from or at in this book. Some of the jokes might turn out corny, but on the other hand, what to expect from a 30 year old joke. Not to discourage you – many of the 152 jokes still keep up with the modern day comedy and hard to believe – many of them you haven‘t heard before. The topics of the jokes‘ are very vast. You will find jokes about animals, children, teachers, Soviet Russia, husbands and wives, drunk people and many more situations to laugh from. „152 jokes for Old School“ has some quite dirty jokes, therefore it is not recommended for people below sixteen years old.
