Some basic writing tips to help you become a more effective storyteller.

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Part 2 of 100 Things. For those of you who've missed Part 1 (mainly dealing with the creation and sustaining of tension), you can find it here: http://www.wattpad.com/story/17586435-100-things-you-should-know-about-writing-part-1 Part 2 will mainly be about the craft of writing, or as I like to think about it, How to Be a Writer. I will however, veer off on tangents to answer questions or just because I want to, but I hope to be informative every time I do so. Cover image Copyright Misha Gerrick 2015 All Rights Reserved

This is about writing, as I think of it. Subjects covered will range from plot aspects to characterization, writing craft to just surviving as a writer. Mainly, Part 1 is a comprehensive list of things to do in order to create and maintain tension.

Need help developing your skills, or just need to brush up on some tips when you are having writers' block? I use these techniques everyday when I write, right from my own store of private writer's cheat sheets. Also included are posts on creating query letters, synopses, pitches, and more. These posts will help you to focus your writing. That means you will be able to impress agents and publishers, or if you prefer the Indie route, improve your ability to attract and capture your audience as early as the book jacket blurb.

The Writer's Resource includes guides, lists, and how to's for just about everything! Need a name for your character? Do you need some help on how to write, say, your southern character? The Writer's Resource has everything you need, and if it doesn't simply comment and we will compose something to your liking. ~A source made about writing, for writers.
