Notice

I removed the page where I had one of my writings because I fear that it may not be the best example for other writers, as I committed many crimes against writing, the effects of which I am afraid have crippled the enjoyment of it's readers.

Writing Rule Number 7

To be a good writer you need to be able to add detail to your story, the amount differing with audience.
For example, if your writing a book intended for a middle-school-aged audience, then it probably would not be considered a good book if it was full of paragraph long descriptions, as they tend to bore younger audiences.

Writing Rule Number Six

To be a good writer, you need a good publisher. Do not expect for the first person you ask to publish your book. It could take years to find a publisher, and even more for your book to start selling. 

Keep your head up though, being denied doesn't mean your book is bad.

Writing Rule Number 5

To be a good writer, you need to be able to go back through something you wrote and see that something in there is terrible, bad, or just plain dumb ( I'm not saying that it is bad, just that you need to know when it is)
and fix it, rewrite it, or remove it from whatever your writing. And remember, be a grammer freak!
It helps to have someone else read it, they'll be able to critisize better.

Writing rule number 5.5
A good writer comments on other's writings : )

Writing Rule Number Four

Be creative, no matter what your writing. Make it seem interesting to readers. even if it's a geometry book,
make something interesting for the readers. like maybe if it's a geometry book you could put the area of the average board of a skateboard, or in a science book put "the average tv uses a total of so-and-so watts every minute". I don't know, your the writer. write it!

As you may have noticed, I just talked about making math sound interesting. why? because it needs to be done. To some people math may be interesting but it needs to sound interesting too. If I have to hear another classmate (or myself) complain about a boring assignment from the book my head will explode! so please try, just try, to make them interesting!

Writing Rule Number 3

To be a good writer, you need to know specific details to what your writing about, like if your writing a book about a samurai warrior who saves the world, you should do research on samurai. The research should be focused on whats going to be put in the book. What i mean by this is that you shouldn't research everything about the samurai in your book, just what the important facts are. so if your writing a book about a samurai who's sent from the past into the future, don't research every single thing about samurai, just important things about them, like what they wear and how they fight.

Also, while I'm on the subject, please read my book: My samurai training
it's not finished yet, but I want to know what people think about it so far.

Writing Rule Number 2

Do not follow blindly what a writer with more success or more money made did, or still does to compose book or series, different people have different styles, and each person must perfect there own. that's not to say you should not listen to a writer with more success, you should still listen. 

Take the methods of the writers before you and transform them to what suits you best.
