On Writing

I've been writing since I was 7 years old - historical pieces, fiction, articles, and film reviews.

Whether you want to write a romance story about love, put your life memoir into words, publish your non-fiction essays or your travels, document past time periods in historical fiction, or let a mystery unfold. Or perhaps you want to pen an exciting adventure, poem, musings, uplifting inspirational story, bring joy to children in a story, chill readers in a horror, or write about the extraordinary in a fantasy or science fiction.

Whichever type of story you wish to write, here are some of the tips I've learned for great writing:

• Craft magnetism and suspense. 
• Open with a bang. 
• Use persuasive words. 
• Write really good sentences. 
• Insert great bullet points. 
• Create exquisite subheads. 
• Tell a seductive story. 
• Keep attention with internal cliffhangers. 
• Choose stylish and arresting images. 
• Be authentic.
