I go over a couple of tips on writing the first draft of a fiction story.
I talk about a girl who stole almost all of her book from other writers.
Talking about indesisife weather, ours hasn't made up its mind for a couple of days.

  • @JeySivaNavam I know of at least two popular methods for this. One is based on how many points of view you have. 1 pov; first person, 2 or more; third person. The other method is free write two different openings (one in first, the other in third) and see which one takes you the furthest. I am writing in third person since my book has two main characters.

  • i respect ur point, but for me i have like 5 story idea's in my head like a calculator but i hav trouble rallying it on paper/word doc i just sttarted writting some important climaxes of my stories but i hav trouble starting them whether to introduce them in 1st person 3rd person perspective etc hav any suggestions? tnx

  • @JeySivaNavam Every writer has a different approach to it, but me personally, I like to take notes on what I have, then free write. As you free write, Your current scenes will likely change. It's good to have an idea where you are headed, but the journey takes many turns.

  • so what about if i hav a story in my head which i do, n i hav the story in my head of the beginning middle end, do i start to write out scenes or do i free right?

  • @DrKojiin Yes, if you want to write anything, the best thing is just to start writing. The first draft is all about words. You don't have to worry about punctuation, spelling, or grammar. I will do a vlog before the end of the week going into better detail, and write a blog for my wordpress blog.

    The song was just for a laugh at the end, and I didn't try too hard. I would have if I had something to back it up.

  • I feel you on that stealing part. So you are saying i should just start writing. Did you put any effort into singing that song.lol
