Anyone can write poems or entertaining stories. But one needs a lyrical mood for this. And for others it is important to know by what laws the plot develops and the characters interact.
Instructions
Step 1
Awaken your imagination. It looks like a shapeless piece of plasticine. Before you knead it, you need to "warm it up". To do this, you can listen to beautiful music and draw it (or rather, your emotions). Take any poem you like and remake it, changing the words, meaning, but keeping the syllable and rhyme. Literary games are great simulators. The most famous is burime. Less well known are binomials, when two unrelated nouns are taken. For example, a giraffe and a TV. And a fairy tale is composed. For example, about how a lonely giraffe was installed at a zoo. It's funny and harmless and fun. In addition, this game can be played with adults and children.
Step 2
Develop observation. A creative person is always a spy, he is an eyewitness to other people's destinies, a keeper of other people's thoughts, portraits, images. The diary develops the habit of recording the world around you and your state. After all, every writer thinks in images. He always compares one phenomenon with another. Therefore, you should sometimes ask yourself questions: "Can I call this snowy branch winter coral?" or "What bird does this skinny girl in a pink coat look like?"
Step 3
Immerse yourself in a related environment. There are many sites on the network where you can share your texts: proza.ru, stihi.ru, zhurnal.lib.ru/. Literary contests are periodically held on the forums of publishing houses. In addition, there are many blogs where you can look for friends with the same interests: creative or just trying to compose. It is useful to read blogs of established writers, learn from their experience and attend creative workshops that they lead.
Step 4
Lean on the shoulders of giants. A person who wants to write well must saturate his language, enrich his vocabulary, stimulate his imagination and analyze how the masters structure their texts. Reading good complex literature is shown to those who want to write seriously and about difficult. In addition to literary practice, they will have to master the theory of literature: genres, tropes, styles, trends. Literature is a whole universe.
Step 5
Catch inspiration. It is important for one person to be in harmony with themselves during creativity. Others need extreme, unhappy love and a storm in their souls for writing. And the third, in order to "pull the trigger", to stimulate writing, requires excitement. And in order to write your first story in your life, you have to tell a friend: "I bet I'll write it?" And then take and write.
