The vacuous is an inevitable wall that all creative writers hit. The fact is they still relentlessly go after it, for the joy of publishing one's work is ethereal.
If you are one of these sensitive, emotional, observant storytellers or love to create, you may have a writer hidden in you. Most don't know till they give it a go, and once they do, the dams break. Some are held back because of the phobia, while others may have various personal reasons.
We are all born impulsive storytellers, weaving and using stories to negotiate and get our way with everyone. The truth is, anyone, can become a writer. ... Even the best writers had to start somewhere before they became successful. It does take a lot of hard work and dedication. The essence of your writing is creativity, clarity and flow, to keep your readers hooked.
You would write about anything under the sun. Share your thinking about something that matters to you. It can be short or long, serious or funny, reported or opinionated.

Not all stories that you publish can be premium content, and we expect them not to exceed two-thirds of your collection.
Maybe the following points could motivate you to write.
Your writing style is an adaptation of what you read. It was common for individuals to have a daily journal in our times, not so much of a flair that I have seen recently. If you write your daily journal, you probably have a style of your own that is very distinctive and unique. Readers love new things, very evident from they quickly adapt to new technology or new Gourmet Restaurants. They will be at a loss if daily journal writers shy away from publishing their work. We understand that some writers may need support in polishing their content once they have finished with it. Many free and paid grammar and punctuation correction software, platforms and applications are available on the internet.
Students of the language we early in their lives decided to walk this path, invariably pursue to publish a saga, likes "The Lord of the Rings" or "Harry Potter". J. R. R. Tolkien, the author of "The Lord of the rings", short stories inspired many writers in his time. One of them was Beowulf, the author of "The monsters and the critics "All the Prodigies, planing a big inning in the art of writing, share your short stories, inspire the world and monetize them.
By publishing an article, you have created a kind of real estate on the platform. Every time anyone purchases your article, your royalty revenue share is assured. An article or more written today may generate revenue for a long, long time.
Inspiration and expression are the lifelines of a writer. Observation is the key to these lifelines; however, the human brain captures information in the hue that it perceives it to be in at that moment, best captured that way, but memories are short-lived and distort easily, thus best captured as and when they occur.
Think Analog write digital: A writer's notebook with thoughts captured on the spur of the moment is a great way to preserve events, thoughts, emotions, and expression. These snippets will serve you as inspiration or become a part of an article.
The two variables are the habit of capturing instantly and the capability to observe. Observation is the only sponge that writers thrive on. A good writer observes both verbal and nonverbal communications. Observe, absorb and capture each emotion, body movement, language and behaviour.
Cary that pocketbook everywhere you go, like your phone, to scribble anything interesting that you may find. Become unconsciously competent in doing this, and this shall strengthen your power to connect with reality relativity, emotions, tone and style of authentic creative writing.
The devil is in the detail. It's an ocean out there, and it's entirely up to you how much of it you can drink. Cultivate a habit to try and get the maximum from an event or an image as you can. To explain this in detail, I shall share my personal experience. I have a three-year-old, and I spend over two hours with him discussing the cover of his book. In the end, he related to more things than the captioned subject. If you wish to be a fiction writer, observe, observe and …
Observe and Observe: Apart from the goat and the boat, the three-year-old learnt, lake, rows, horns, beard, reeds, rows, Castel, spear, shield, guards mountains, trees, clouds, purse, gold, coin, money, coat, paddle, and maybe a few more. Now, if the kid keeps observing things the way he is being tutored, then definitely all he has to do is string prices together to write a fiction story. It's not difficult to string a new tale different from the "goat in a boat". The three-year-old tries that, kind of early to say if he is being creative or mixing up stories, either way, he is on the right track.
Use your work, like cattle ruminate each act, hmm it's like you have seen a great movie it is often that for days we keep thinking of a charter or situation again and again. So for all that you capture, scribble and observe, think about it, live it, relate with it.
When you don't, you are left to the mercy of the internet, which can only share words in its two-dimensional aspect. Other fall prey to plagiarism. That's a murder of creative writing.
Think crazy things: I try my best to start with a catchy headline for something that is going on in my mind, like "The elephant on my back", "Spidy in my web", or something like "living the illusion", "Wildebeest calf and the heard", my notebook now has hundreds of such title, and I know only a few them like seeds shall be blossom into great trees. All I need to do is write the flow of the story tagline that I relate to and write the subheadings. Fill in the subheadings with research work or content from your notebook or mind. Proofread it, make sure you are delivering value, and there is your article.
Write now, edit later: Frequently editing or rearranging saps out the Flavour and flow from your story. So go ahead and pound keys pour your thoughts, and edit later once finished. In fact, even later. Don't be horrified that your first draft will be the shittiest piece of writing that you would have ever done. Don't worry happens to one and all. Give your writing a break of a couple of hours or a day is better, and now sit down to proofread. Now, like a sculpture, chisel out and polish your writing. Done, read it one last time, now publish it.
