Writing may seem like a giant mountain before you, when you don't know the basis. Just knowing this will usher you into writing like a fish placed in water.

Elementary as they are, not keeping to this, will create a huge negative effect that blackens your write-ups!

Here listed are basics of writing:

Build your Vocabulary!
Words One striking definition of writing is "a play of words..." You just can't escape them as a writer, try as you can. The difference between "Fagan slapped Ruth" and "Fagan's hand drew out quick as lightening, striking Ruth's cheek hard, her eyes widened, mouth gaped, as she instinctively brought her palms up to her stinging cheek which was rapidly reddening"
As a writer, words are your thing!
Thesaurus and dictionaries should be your permanent companions.

Read! Read! Read!
I cant emphasis it enough. A great man once told me, " Every addicted reader is a potential writer! Well then, what are you waiting for?! Increase your writing potentials as you read more today! Also, nothing improves vocabulary as quickly, surely and easily as reading.

Use Your Imagination
It's time to give your mind that free rein into storylines never written, ever! Imagination transforms your writing from predictable to mindblowing. Its all in the imagination, let it run wild......

Start Writing, Now!
There is nowhere around it, you learn writing by writing! As you write more, you get. Whip out that notepad now and write!

Keep Writing
Consistency is key, keep at it! Put yourself on a schedule, the more frequent you write, the better your skill.
