Writing Tip:
Editing is half the battle with writing and needs just as much attention. You're not done just because the draft is done. Now your piece goes from a diamond in the rough to a polished gem. Even great first drafts need in-depth edits to shine.

Writing Tip:
The quality of your first draft does not represent the quality of the finished product. Far from it. Most first drafts are an incomprehensible mess. Quality shines in editing. Even a poorly-written draft can be polished into a diamond over time.

Writing Tip:
Remember that your characters have lives outside of the story. They aren't just waiting in the wings for their turn to say their lines. If you're reintroducing a character, have them be doing something, like making breakfast or reading a book.

Writing Tip:
While you might feel tempted to only focus your dialogue on important plot stuff, allowing characters to chat about other things is a wonderful way to naturally include lore-building. Not everything has to be hyper-focused on the main story.

Writing Tip:
ALWAYS create a backup of your work somewhere safe. Even if you think your copy is perfectly safe on the cloud, accidents happen. You might lose internet access or a glitch could wipe the system. You'll thank yourself later by saving a copy of it.

Writing Tip:
It's often helpful to create a 'cheat sheet' for all the important lore facts, character details, and other miscellaneous stuff you need to remember as you write. That way, you can refer back to it regularly and avoid plot holes/inconsistencies.

Writing Tip:
Feeling stuck in a scene? Sometimes you have to go backwards to go forwards. Deleting a few of lines (or paragraphs) and taking another crack at it can often help approach a scene from another angle. Don't think you're stuck with the text you have

Writing is supposed to be fun. Just #write. First drafts especially, don't require all the fussy perfectionism of a polished, published novel. First drafts don't have to be good. They just have to exist. #WritingTips #WritingCommunity #AmWriting #FirstDrafts

Writing Tip:
Always consider the physical mannerisms of your characters. Everyone has habits and ticks, and you can use those to flesh them out. Do they regularly scratch itches? Yawn? Do their eyes dart around the room or are they always stone faced?

I’ve explored many different approaches and processes in my multi-decade writing career. Outlining. Pantsing. Fast writing. Slow and deliberate writing. Coffee shop writing. Monastic cell writing. Public shrieking. Grave robbing. Cannibalism. Arson.
None of them work.

Writing Tip:
Don't just look for writers on social media to get your inspiration. Writing inspiration can come from all sources. Filmmakers, comic artists, even a really good painter/visual artist. Branch out and learn from the amazing people out there!
