Writing Tips

Here's a few tips that I've found extremely helpful when writing, and there are some that I've yet to try. Have a writing tip? Share it with us!

• Mark words that you like or find interesting with a pen or highlighter (in a book that you own). 
• If you come across a word that you can't understand, look it up on google.com
• Looking for the right word to use? You can find synonyms and antonyms for a word on thesaurus.com
• Pay close attention to your writing, making sure you don't use the same words over and over again.
• Put what you've been working on, away for a day or two. Check your writing and edit if you need.
• Join a writers' group.
• Take some courses on writing.
• Buy books that offer tips (amazon.com)
• Read often.
• Try to add new words to your vocabulary. 
• Ask for opinions on your writing from friends, family, and etc. 
• Ask for advice from authors/writers.
• Practice!

God bless!
