Description
The very thought of writing intimidates many, if not most people. Speaking comes naturally-we just open our mouths and the words flow with ease. But not so with writing. It's common to get stuck on a writing project before putting even one word on paper.But take courage: this book shows you how to avoid writer's block. You'll learn to view writing the same as speaking to a friend-just sit at the keyboard, or have a pen in hand, and let fly. This method is called flow-writing, and it's been used by the world's top writers for decades. Flow-writing, in its speed and naturalness, mimics the spoken voice. By flow-writing you are actually capturing your speaking voice and redirecting it to paper. Your words will sound like you, and the quality of your writing will improve in leaps and bounds. Writing will be a joy!Notice some of the key chapter titles in this book: * Capture Your Style of Speech* Flow-Writing* Music-The Rhythm of Your Writing* Your Writing Voice* Humor* Writer's Block-Or Not Writer's Block* Personality* Sentence and Paragraph Structure* Write a Strong Conclusion* Tackling Large Writing Projects* Editing Your Work* Show, Don't Tell* Tricky Word Choices* "Rules" to Put to Rest* Self-Publishing
