Each person is talented in his own way and, if desired, can express himself in creativity. One way to show talent is to write a book. There are no absolute recipes here, because every person is individual, has his own unique outlook on life, language and manner of writing. But there are still general rules for the correct approach to writing a book.
Instructions
Step 1
Create a source of motivation for yourself that will propel you into writing. It happens that a person seems to be ready to write something, but constantly postpones such work, citing lack of time or circumstances. It will be much easier to get started on the book if you keep the end result in mind. Indeed, wouldn't it be nice to pick up a book with your name on the cover?
Step 2
Set aside time for writing. Most likely, you will have to sacrifice many pleasures. The first step to success is daily, albeit small, work on the manuscript. Better to write one or two pages a day than trying to squeeze out a few dozen pages on one weekend.
Step 3
When you get started, think carefully about what your book will be about. You can write efficiently and easily only about what is close to you, what you are well versed in. The book can be based on real events from your life, observations of reality, stories of your friends. If you find it difficult to choose the central idea and focus of the work, change the environment, try to gain new impressions that will stimulate creativity.
Step 4
Make it a habit to always have a notebook or notebook with you. Ideas and interesting images can visit you at any time and in a wide variety of settings. Make notes in a notebook, write down thoughts that may be useful when writing a work.
Step 5
Think about the plot of the story. For a work to be successful with the reader, it must be based on a conflict, a clash of some opposite tendencies. A conflict-free plot can eventually turn into a boring and gray narrative, devoid of liveliness and monotonous enumeration of events.
Step 6
Work on the characters in the book. They are key to the story. Imagine the characters as real people who may have not only undeniable advantages, but also disadvantages. The closer to life the description of the characters of the heroes, the more reliable the book will be. The hero of the work should be such that after reading the book, his image will remain in the reader's memory for a long time.
Step 7
After writing the book in the first version, carefully re-read what you have written. You will probably want to redo some places, add details to the narrative, and give up some of the descriptions. This work of perfecting the text is usually the most time-consuming. When you achieve the correspondence of the content of the book to your intention, you can consider the work on the work completed.
