Read. Read alot. Write. Write alot. Stories, long and short. Write journal entries, lists, anything....just write.
I know, I know. You've heard this a million times, but it's true.
Some people say, read everything and anything. Others will tell you to read what genre you want to write in. I tend to lean toward the second one.
I LOVE, absolutely am addicted to, middle grade fantasy/magic. I don't know what it is about that genre, but I can't get enough. And I feel that is the genre that I feel absolutely comfortable writing in.
Most importantly, no matter how bad your day is or if you think you suck or can't do it, I PROMISE you can. You don't have to be a certain age either. Listen, really listen to your gut. It won't steer you wrong.
