How To Be A Good Writer (steps To Follow) by Abujamedia(m): 6:28pm On Jun 29, 2014
Today on Facts Only Blog I will be explaining the simple 4 Steps on how to be a good Article, Book/Novel writer.


First of all, what is writing good or who is a good writer? Your answer to this might be the name of your favourite author, maybe the one who wrote a comic or story/novel you like, or might as well be your teacher.

A good writer is a person who can write what he/she feels, narrate fictions, make a story out of impressions/expression people give without asking them a single question, he or she should be able to write under any circumstances or position he/she finds him/her self. Most people say psychics makes awesome writers because they can feel and put down their emotions with ink.

You don't have to write a book/Novel before classifying yourself as a good writer, though getting your work out to people to read and learn from is important as a career person, just as people like me do it for fun.

NOTE;

Professional writers do make mistakes, that why you see the "Editors" name different from the writer's on newspapers, Story book/novel, no matter how good you're in writing you'll always need someone to proof read, re-arrange your English and correct your paragraph, so have it in mind that making mistakes while writing or as writer is a normal thing..
If you've been following my English you'll notice some of my arrangements aren’t correct, yes! That's just to back up the point that you don't have to VERY good in English to become a writer, all you need to do Is get the idea of what to write, put it down In details, proof read, correct misspelled words and find a person to do the editing for you.

As a good writer you should be able to make people relate (Assume) your write-up as a real incident by expressing, giving full details of the event and describing things like place, how, the manner in which the event took place/incident occur. Etc.

Cutting the long story short below are the 4 SIMPLE steps to meditate on if you would like to be a good writer;

1. READ: [/b]You have to read and continue reading If you really want to be a successful writer, see how people write, always notice their patterns and they way they describe things, also try to learn at least a new word everyday.

2. [b]WRITE:
OK, you think is too early to write? A capital NO, with all have mentioned and explain above you should be able to write without fear and always know that, the more you write the more you add stars to your writing career because you will always want to improve.

Don't know what to write about? Very simple, lots of celebrities around you, you can start by analysing them or create your own personal journal and write about the happenings around you.

3. PROOF READ: This is the most important step you should never do without, like I said above "No matter how good you're in writing, you will ALWAYS make mistakes, it normal, so try proof read your write-up at least twice before publication.

4. ALLOW COMMENTS: Yeah! Its the last step and also important so to push your career and know your weaken point by letting people read your write-up and comment whether good or bad, just to know where to correct yourself next time.

You can also Publicize yourself by submitting your article(s) to blog sites for publication.
