About Criticism For Writers

Posted by Ali & Aerica on Tuesday, October 25, 2011, In : Writing Tips & Guide 

This is a guest-post by Phil Bledsoe


Criticism is an inevitable outcome of writing. I have never known a single person who made even the pretense of writing without holding strong opinions on the work of others, whether those opinions were positive or negative. This can be as simple as the person who credits their favorite author with inspiring them to get started in the first place, or as complicated as someone who has a top ten list of favorites and a bottom ten list of least favorites, al...

How To Boost Your Creativity And Imagination As A Writer

Posted by Guest Author - Maryam Hussain on Sunday, September 25, 2011, In : Writing Tips & Guide 
 

This is a guest-post by Maryam Hussain.


Creativity is a gift by nature. But there is a way that can help you compete the real talent and that way is 'determination'. If you don't possess an innate tendency to write, there is nothing to worry about. You only have to be opinionated and that is it. Then, determination can take you to the top. Read loads of stuff that interests you and then begin attaching your own ideas to it. This will boost up your imagination that almost everyone posse...

It Is Never Too Late To Be A Writer

Posted by Ali & Aerica on Sunday, August 28, 2011, In : Writing Tips & Guide 

This guest-post is by Ben Moore.

From when I first read books I knew I wanted to be a writer. My 12 year old self-wrote a story about a boy who had a secret pet Pacman who would constantly get him in trouble and then save the day, but I did not bring it to an end.

A few years later I tried to write a mystery, but that didn't pan out. At 18, I co wrote a play that was produced three night's running in my local town hall. In university I edited the arts pages of the student newspaper and c...

1 – The “Job” of Writers is Not Enough Recognized as a “job”.

The Impact of Digital Printing on The Publishing World

Posted by Ali & Aerica on Tuesday, June 7, 2011, In : Writing Tips & Guide 

 

Digital printing is just a fancy word to say that it's printing through a “digital” technology instead of a “mechanical” technology such as it was done in the past. The difference between these two is very important. Let's say for example that you want to print a one page text through a mechanic printing (the old way of printing), you need to have the original of that paper physically (in your hands). Then, by applying some kind of a physical pressure over your paper (letterpres...

Are You Searching What to Write About?

Posted by Ali & Aerica on Saturday, May 28, 2011, In : Writing Tips & Guide 

 

Asking yourself what are the subjects you should write about is the same thing as asking what are the subject that you can write about in literature.

First of all, let's explain what literature means. “Technically”, during the 12th century, literature meant whatever that was “written” and then it slowly changed to mean “the ability to obtain knowledge from books”.
