Are You The Next JK Rowling? Are You The Next JK Rowling? by Suzanne Harrison Harry Potter. The name brings instant recognition from people all over the world. Researching what a novel truly is first It took me loads of research (years) to discover all that it is for me to come up with my first ever novel. I first needed to have a good idea of what my topic and or sub-topics were going to be, as discussed in the very first group of blog posts here. I was certain I wanted to write a non-fiction novel rather then a fiction one, and so if your looking to write yours, you will definitely need to make a decision as to what type of novel you would like to begin working on. Doing this before you get your writings placed into action is imperative, and changing your mind at the very last minute wouldn't be bad if you made sure to do so before getting to far into the book. Many people may be the types to quickly change their mind from one extreme to the next, and that's why I chose to state such a fact up above, and this reality does indeed exist for us writers that are overloaded with a great deal of thoughts and creativity to unleash.

Ten Tips to Break into Freelance Writing When I quit my day job to become a freelance writer, I had nothing to fall back on but my desire to work from home and succeed. I nearly didn't. The first year I freelanced, I barely made enough money to live. Borrowing to make ends meet, termination notices on bills, and lots of Ramen noodles for dinner later, I have now completely replaced my income from my 'real job', and I am a full time freelance writer. How to get started in Copywriting Writing is a form of art that has mesmerized humanity for centuries. It allows people to express their inner emotions and release their imaginations upon the blankness of a page. Those that enjoy writing even find it therapeutic. However becoming an established author is a life choice that comes with a very low success rate, and so, if you have a passion for creative writing you may want to start out with something a little bit more stable. The answer?
Set up Your Story in the First Paragraphs by Jodie Renner, editor, author, speaker I receive several first chapters (and synopses) every week as submissions for possible editing, and I always read the first page. Some are clear and compelling and make me want to read more. But too often, two main problems emerge: Either the author spends too much time revving his engine with description or backstory before we even care (boring); or we’re plunged right into the story but have no idea where we are or what’s going on (confusing). There are three cardinal rules of successful novelists: 1. Ranking of Literary Journals I’ve become disenchanted with the whole notion of ranking literary journals, but I don’t want to delete this page entirely and disappoint the many readers who come here daily to discover new literary journals to read and submit to. So instead, I’m radically changing the system. The list below arranges literary journals in order of how many times they’ve had a story or special mention in the last seven years (2007 – 2013) in the Best American Short Stories (BASS). My hope is that this list will complement Cliff Garstand’s excellent list at Perpetual Folly which ranks journals according to Pushcart Prizes over the last decade. To some extent, I’m borrowing his methodology which gives a certain number of points to wins and a lesser number for special mentions (in BASS, these are the 100 notable stories listed at the end of each volume).

How the 30-day method works The outline you'll complete using the 30-day method will become a snapshot of your novel. After finishing a full outline, you should feel you've got the makings of an entire book (your story should feel complete, solid, exciting and satisfying) and you should be desperate to start writing the book itself. This first draft outline is the equivalent to the first draft of a manuscript. Because you've revised it so thoroughly, it will read with all the completeness and excitement of a finished novel.
