Benny Blog Tip: #4 – The unexpected.
Hi young creators! Well, it's been a super busy week at Benny's Blog. We received so many emails from the young Australian school kids that got to meet our author, Deby Adair, when she did her big school tour this winter.! Phew... she met around 700 school kids this year, so you can just imagine how jammed my email inbox was!! I didn't expect to receive all those emails! And they ALL wanted copies of the WISH TRILOGY!
I got asked lots of questions, but the question I got asked most, was: 'How long does it take to write a book?'
Well, this is different for every writer. Not everyone writes a book in the same way. Some writers plot their books and some writers write what they feel like on the day.
But I think it makes good sense to make order of your book writing. These are my rules for getting started.
a. Decide on a theme or idea.
b. Create your main characters (later you can add more.)
c. Imagine what you're going to write about in your head.
d. Don't rush, take your time. Remember that anything worth doing deserves to be well thought out and patiently delivered!
It's been great sharing my tips with you once again! And keep those lovely emails coming; I'm having a big unexpected adventure replying to you all!
Thanks everyone! I’ll see you here next time, at Benny’s Blog!
