🎯 Where Should I Start?
ⓘ About Marianne Richards
Write every day, no matter what the format. Write about things that enthuse you, not what you think people might buy. Write as if you are telling the story to your best friend. Use a tape recorder if you can’t cope with a blank screen. You will learn the craft by doing it, over time, gaining satisfaction in a field with infinite possibilities. Writing entails an equal amount of reading. I spend several hours a day on this pleasurable activity. If you self-publish, always make the best presentation you can. Layout, grammar, spelling, cover design, print format is also the art of writing. This way, you also gain pride and self-respect. The journey is important, the ‘arrival’ subject to fate. Like many, you might become famous after your death!
