hello my fellow writers,
welcome to 2017! good luck and good words to you all and a good year ahead!
so let's get straight to the first dose of writing info for the year, which you might not need, desperately want, or never even expected to be there!

• 5 tricks for getting into the writing zone seems to be a good start to kick of the new writing year right?
  it's a quick read, and you might probably have heard most of the 5 or even all of them before, but it's always good to recoll them and try to apply them. hope it will get you more easily into your zone!



• 4 Ways to Verify Your Story Concept Is Strong Enough is a nice read and a very interesting and helping advice. the author gives nice examples and makes very clear what she means, i found it helpful for a story on my mind, that somehow wouldn't come out- now i know where i was missing the mark for it to develop further. hopefully this may jiggle some of the same helpful thoughts in you! however, i think it's best to warn you, that the author has a small vendetta against cowboys and aliens going- maybe she regretted reading it, and cant get over it now? who knows



• 3 Tactics To Make You A More Productive Writer! that is what i wish for all of us for 2017 and her 3 tips are rather helpful- especially the first and the third, i have to give the 2ed a real try, so far i just cut the net, so that i can't access anything but chatzy when i'm in real writing mode- why chatzy you ask? because having someone there who gets shit done in 30 min helps me getting shit done in 30 mins! so thanks for all of you being there, getting me through my stuff <3

may the muses be with you!
and remember all words are good words (even the words that are gone due to edition!)





do you want more tips on one certain topic that i so far completely ignored? (i am posting here what catches my fancy in hope to motivate you to get words down- so if you have something you need to know or read or be motivated on, let me know and i shall dig around the net trying to find something for you)
do you have a tip you want to share, but are thinking: "meh"- just pm me or write me a mail smirkingcat[at] yandex. com and i shall check it out and include it in a future post [with your name or without it]
