• Keep writing - No matter what you do, keep going! It doesn’t matter how often you write, as long as you’re doing it occasionally and frequently that’s all that matters!
• Scheduling a time and a word limit for your day – This is something that I always do, it prevents burnout, fatigue and extra stress. Normally, my writing tends to be done when I am not studying at university or working shifts for my part-time job and I normally set a limit of a chapter a day. This way, something still gets done and you are not feeling overwhelmed and overworked.
• READ – Reading is one of the key things that helps you become a better writer. After reading a handful of books you will know what you like in a book and what you don’t like in a book, this can include layout and even writing style.
• Create a dream journal or an ideas journal - Writing down and recalling your dreams and nightmares along with your ideas, can be important for any writer to draw upon in your writing. Dreams and nightmares have inspired me a countless number of times when coming up for ideas for novels and little writing pieces!
