HOW CAN YOU BECOME A GOOD WRITER?
1. Read
2. Write
3. Live
Writing is a value in itself - a means of deciphering feelings and thoughts, a way of structuring the past, present, and future, an opportunity to create new worlds, realities, and languages. Many people write all their lives, even if they don't publish a single text. Good to write. The text has values other than the value of being read - it is primarily relevant to the author himself. And that importance cannot be deprived of by anyone or anything.
When, then, can the text be relevant to others? One way to get an idea is point 1.
1. Read
The text worth publishing is not only formally but also substantively valid, complete, and full-bodied. To know when to move at such a level, you need to see the field of literature. Otherwise, he can imagine that he has created something unique - only to be disappointed because he has unknowingly become a repetition of being used many times and singing with someone else's voice.
Indians write a lot. But do they read - even their texts? If you want to develop as a writer, reading your pen mark is paramount. Only when you see the text on paper will you get the necessary distance to it. Only then can one notice what may have been left open (because it is self-evident), which may have been explained too much (because he has wanted to record his insights or reactions and thus prevented the reader from the joy of understanding and response) and what otherwise sounds just embarrassing, clumsy, or obscure.
You can see how much a person has read from the text. Reading can also be seen as a monkey, which is not the intention either. The mature writer is familiar with the traditions and conventions of literature but has found all his noise in the middle of his voice. To do this, go to step 2.
2. Write
Write a lot. Write poorly. Write without self-criticism and judgment, let go, let the subconscious take over the field. Then, when you want to focus on developing a particular text but the critic's glasses on your eyes, read through the text, and rewrite it — or don't write if you happen to bump out the complete package right away.
The larger the hole, the more rewriting is usually needed. The skill of building a novel is seldom possessed instinctively, and writing is usually a long and step-by-step process.
Read your text to others and ask them for comments. India offers both a review service and high-quality author training accessible to everyone - so why wouldn't you use the help? The fact is that publishers do not have the resources to provide detailed feedback on scripts other than those they consider the potential for their publishing program. Thus, as a writer, one cannot count on one's development.
When you receive criticism, remember a sense of relativity and listening to yourself - don't run after every view, but choose the ones that fit your goal and discard those that don't. One of the hallmarks of a writer is that he knows what he is aiming for. No one else can give him that information.
The publisher helps to fine-tune the text, but the author must also be prepared to defend their view if it feels like it is being trampled on for the wrong reasons. So don't be indifferent to your text. The narrower the text, the more each word and character weighs.
You can see how much a person has written from the text. But even reading and writing is not enough - we don't want to read a paper-tasting text that does have words in place but the content screams in its emptiness. So go to step 3.
3. Live
Explore yourself, other people, life, nature, science, art… anything human and inhuman! Just think. Feeling. Ask. Wonder. Compare and deduce. Form perceptions and opinions. Find out you were wrong. Question all. Claim and argue. Will.
The mere way you say it doesn't make you an exciting writer - you also have to have something to say. And to have something to say, one must have experiences experienced, thoughts, thought, emotions known, and views formed. And reading books.
Man cannot write past himself - a more spiritually mature, more profound, and multidimensional text than he is. How much a person has lived can be seen in the text.
Do you feel like you're ready to offer your script to a publisher? If you get a bonus task:
4. Select publisher (s)
Examine the publishing programs of the publishers and select the publisher (s) that are/are most in line with you. For example, it's pointless to offer romantic entertainment, aphorisms, or children's and youth books because we don't publish them. However, the fact that one publisher does not publish a particular type of literature does not mean that another could not publish - so explore alternatives if you find that Like could be your thing and you Liken.
