I've been reviewing stories on Wattpad for a while now and, boy, has that been a journey. Your stories have made me gasp and squeal. Your stories have made me laugh and cry. But, from time to time, your stories have made me cringe. In commemoration of my review store hitting 100 reviews, I thought it was about time to break down my reviewing journey, with the help of a fellow reviewer, @awesomeSTG. This book will contain chapters regarding the common errors I see in stories, it will offer tips on how to make your story professional, and there will also be some sneaky rants about what people expect from a reviewer. Welcome to 101 Writing Tips from an Exhausted Reviewer, featuring two very exhausted reviewers: @ray_of_sunshine9 and @awesomeSTG. Or, as perfectly said by @awesomeSTG: Ladies and gentlemen, folks far and wide! Sharpen your quills, prepare your scrolls, and polish your fire-resistant armours, for we shall finally cool off your burning queries - or scorch you even more - with our word of wisdom (namely rants) and advice! Hear ye, hear ye! And the incredible cover is done by the very talented @g_beckford - thank you so much!

I'll show you how to improve your story with just a few tips and exercises. Writing a novel can be confusing, especially if you're new to it. Even if you're a pro at writing, it still helps to be refreshed. This is my way to help you. Hopefully it WILL help in your journey as a writer, and if you have questions, please ask me. I'll address topics such as: ~The five senses ~Believable characters ~Improving first drafts ~Plot twists ~Dialogue ~Descriptions ...And much more. Oh, and one more thing before you begin reading. I know there are a lot of chapters, and a ton of content, but don't overwhelm yourself! Try starting off with a couple topics you know you could improve on, work on those, and then read a couple more. If you read all of these chapters at once it may be a bit too much to take on! So take your writing journey as slow as you need, and work on it one step at a time.

Welcome young Travellers. To a book of much inspiration. This book is the Second Book for getting your Creative Juices flowing. Check out 'Writers Juice' if you are looking for more inspiration. Among my travels for information for my other books. I have found many ideas, which would be great details to books, or even better, inspirations to books themselves. The book will be filled with prompts, both ideas and dialogue. Along with many other whimsical ideas you may want to add to your story. For Example did you know Petrichor is actually the word for the smell after rainfall, who knew? You hope to add that into a story now, don't you! Each of my chapters of Inspiration are named after a particular tea. Because what drink could possibly be a better writers best friend than Tea?

With these exercises you will be able to improve: Setting description Characters Emotional description These will help you to learn to shut off your brain and write for the pure love of it. Worrying about what others will think or if we are good enough holds writers back from being able to explore their true potential. Based off my writing threads, you will time yourself, forcing you to shut down that little voice and write whatever comes out of you. Stop overthinking your decisions and just write. To be featured in this book: Any exercises you do can be published in this book. Simply send me a private message and we will arrange for it. You will have your name as the chapter and will get each of your exercises reviewed by me. Rules: Writing must be made for this only. No previous work. Should be kept at two comment size worth (4,000 characters). Be finished within thirty minutes. Provide everything chosen from the list *All writing will belong to you.
