That’s what keeps us reading. #writingtips #amwriting #characteragency #writingadvice #fantasyauthor #authortips #bookwriting #howtowrite #first30pages #creativewriting #writingcommunity #30writingtips

Agree or disagree? 👀 Your character’s first line isn’t just dialogue. Maybe it’s more like a handshake. Let it reveal something: their values, voice, vibe, or secret motivation. Think of it like this: If we only got one line from them… would we remember who they are? ✨ Writers, what’s your favorite first line you’ve ever written? 👀 #writingabook #aspiringauthor #WritingTips #CharacterDevelopment #WritingAdvice #WritersOfInstagram #AmWriting #FictionWriting #BookWriting writing character introductions, first line tips, character voice, developing fictional characters, how to write dialogue, writing believable characters, memorable character moments, novel writing advice, character-driven stories, strong openings for fiction, writing intros, storytelling structure

Take the small steps to start your book writing process #bookwriting #writeabook #selfpublishedauthor

I’ve had a few people comment and message me about how much they’d LOVE to write a book ‘one day’ BUT they have no idea where or how to even start ‘writing’. In fact, one lady told me she was scared to get started -and it was holding her back. When you set out to write a book - of course it’s daunting because it seems like such a humongous task...what’s your book about, how many words do you need to write, what’s the title, how many chapters will it have, how do I get passed writing Chapter 1 - lol! SO here’s a really simple tip to help you get into a writing ‘flow’ - instead of sitting down to try to write your book in its entirety - create a writing ‘habit’... This could take many forms depending on your own writing nature but should include challenging yourself to write ‘something’ EVERY day - I’ve given you some ideas to get you started in this reel. For me - my ‘writing habit’ translates into writing content for social media - and I do this EVERY day. I’ve been writing like this for years - for my mentoring students I write courses, e-guides and social tips ALL the time - and I should really turn those into a book! And for this account - I’m researching lots of areas for 3 books I’m working on and so I’m writing up little snippets on that and turning that into the social posts you see in my feed. 📚 If you’re interested in reading a copy of my PhD thesis when it’s available (plus 3 new book titles) - comment PHD and I’ll send you the link to join my book waitlist! Is this something that interests you - would you like more guidance on ‘how’ to write or how to write a book? #howtowrite #howtowriteabook #bookwriting #thesiswriting #phdthesis #phdbythesis #phdjourney #phdlife #jewelleryhistorian #childrensjewelleryhistory #childrensjewelleryhistorian #sarahmcaleerhistorysmith
