Our notebook in hand we stare at a blank page. We just bought a brand new notebook and promised ourselves we would write. But now that we stare at the page we are frozen. You are not alone. Where to begin in the process is the question but the bottom line is writing something.

Don't worry about the rejection. They say there are ten "no's" to every "yes" so look forward to getting the "no" out of the way so you can get a "yes". Keep plugging away at your regular job while you get your writing in and your work out there. Don't give up and persevere. All authors who do it full time now had regular jobs once in their lifetime and they had the same dreams you do now. They didn't give up and kept plugging away.

If you are one that has a menial job right now don't forget the Stephanie Meyer is a home-maker and Suze Orman used to wait tables. You will see famous authors now and in the past who were teachers, consultants, garbage collectors and every other kind of career.

The bottom line is if you want to be a writer you must begin to write. You cannot think about writing and dream about signing autographs without first putting something down on paper. You may be a bit nervous and not know what to write about but you need to write something. Any writing is better than no writing at all.

Read as much as you can. Most writers are avid readers. They love to read and read and read some more. It builds your vocabulary too and you gain insight and knowledge from reading. I used to think I would accidentally plagiarize something if I read too much, but reading gives you a flavor of the style you want to write. What makes a good author? What do you enjoy reading? That is typically the style you will write in.

Write what you know about and never be stumped. Well so to speak. Study life around you and what you see as stories in your world. Don't talk yourself out of writing thinking no one will ever read it. Go ahead and write and stay positive. It can have a twist but will still be in your world.

Keep a notebook handy and write, write, write. Take time to write and jot down ideas. Even if they don't make sense now they may later. No matter what style of writing you do keep your notes close and don't give up. As they say everyone has one good novel in them.
