Writing Tip #1
Tiger
Writing is both art and science. It is the act of capturing a tiger by the tail and getting to stand still long enough to get a photo of it before it turns around and eats you. The secret to successful writing is to write as fast and as hard as you can, because if you stop, your Tiger will eat you. Speed is key; do not over think about what you are writing, just hammer it out and move onto the next one. Feedback from those who read it can then provide an invaluable tool to help you get better. But remember, never let go of the Tiger’s tail; that means to say write every day, even if it’s just a blog or something, the act of putting something on paper forms a habit that will help keep you away from the business end of your Tiger. Creativity is a thing that bites. You do not want to discover just how powerful its jaws nor how sharp its claws. Sitting in front of a blank screen wondering where your muse is could be likened to writer’s purgatory.
