But we are concerned here with another genre, a genre that permits self-expression under predetermined guidelines designed to give you a better than evens chance of publication withoutrepparttar 128782 necessity of paying forrepparttar 128783 privilege, providing always that your work and its presentation are painstakingly and professionally executed.

DETERMINE YOUR PROPENSITY FOR CREATING NICHE NON-FICTION

Ask yourself these questions and spend a few minutes in quiet reflection before you providerepparttar 128784 answers.

1. Do you like to read, be it fiction or non fiction? 2. Do you enjoy writing letters, reports, or whatever? 3. Do you have a better than average vocabulary? 4. Do you strive at every opportunity to enhance your personal word power? 5. Do you persist with crosswords until you've solved allrepparttar 128785 clues? 6. Do you have an enquiring mind? Do you have special interests? 7. Do you have expertise in any particular subject(s)? 8. Would you undertake research to confirm and expand on what you think you know? 9. Would you be prepared to share this knowledge with others? 10. Would you be willing to make time to write about it for pleasure and profit? 11. Are you comfortable about committing your private thoughts to paper? 12. Are you self-disciplined? 13. Are you relaxed about working on your own?

How About “How To”? Have you ever wondered how books like “Computers For Idiots” became so popular? Don’t. Generally, people want to know how to do just about every conceivable thing you can imagine. You may have a creative way to cut corners in home improvement, gardening, or interior decorating. You may also have successful child rearing tools and techniques. Whatever it is, someone wants to read about it. All you have to do is writerepparttar details.

As a first time writer,repparttar 128778 ultimate point to remember is you should always start with what you know or have personally experienced. Letrepparttar 128779 words come, don’t analyze your thoughts while they are thoughts. Spending too much time rethinking can spoil a great work inrepparttar 128780 making.

Stay personal. Write as if you are verbally tellingrepparttar 128781 story or having a conversation with a good friend. Maintaining a casual attitude keeps you relaxed and open to ideas and witty thoughts.

Let your first draft be a “free flowing” experience. Have fun with it. You can get technical later. If it hasn’t already, writing will become part of you. Not unlike riding a bike,repparttar 128782 more you write,repparttar 128783 better it gets, andrepparttar 128784 more comfortable you’ll become. Let your inner source guide, direct and keep you on track. Do not hesitate to ask God to give yourepparttar 128785 words to write and or what topic to develop. There is no better source of inspiration.
