About the creative process of writing

Really, you don't have to go for the Pullitzer Prize, if you
start writing.

On the contrary!

Try to write as you speak.

Be clear, and come right to the point when you make a statement.

Remember, it's not about HOW you write, it's about WHAT
you have to say.


TIP: People love to read clear lines, and if you use lots
of white space between your paragraphs, you'll keep the
readers interested.

Don't forget; Keep it simple!

Or even better; Keep it stupid simple :-)

Now that you have your idea, you're ready to start doing
the real stuff, that is... being writing :-)

One more thing: before you start hitting those keys, ask
yourself if there is an audience waiting for your book,
or are you going to be your own reader? :-)

Make sure there are people willing to read your E-book
before you write it.

Otherwise: DO NOT WRITE IT!

Here are some tips to keep in mind when you write:

* Be original.

* Inject your personality into your writing style.

* Use short sentences.

* Use words that don't force your readers to grab a
dictionary to understand you.

* Put in some sort of illustration to prove your point.
