The ten commandments of writer.
1) Don't let anyone steal your voice.
Our inner voice is the reason we decide to tell a story one way or another. Our points of view, our eyes. Our voice. Don't let anyone steal your voice.
2) Don't compare your work.
Each writer has his own particular and original way of writing. There's a reason we like to read certain writers, right? Find out why other people should read to you. Read and learn from other jobs; do not read and compare; don't read and steal.
3) Write from your personal experiences.
Don't write about things you don't know; write about how you would like to know those things, or how you think they are.
4) Write for yourself, not for others.
Stop thinking that your ideas are not good.
As Stan Lee said: << I consider myself an ordinary person. And if I was able to think of a story that I liked, then there must be another ordinary person who likes it. >>
It doesn't matter if you are ordinary or extraordinary, human or alien. You will find many people who will love your story, but the ESSENTIAL thing is that YOU BE THE PERSON WHO LOVES IT THE MOST.
5) Start writing.
You are the one who is driving the car. Don't expect other people to start writing for you.
6) Write even when you think what you're writing is bad.
As Rad Bradbury said, << Write a short story every week. You can't write 52 bad stories in a row >>.
7) Read a lot. Read more than you write.
As simple and complicated as it sounds, a writer improves his work through hours and hours of reading. Stop reading as a reader, start reading as a writer. It is time to pay attention to the rhythm of the paragraphs, the evolution of the characters, etc.
8) Find a guide.
It doesn't matter if you are a writer, photographer, painter or whatever. Find someone who knows more than you and try to learn from him / her / them. Don't underestimate help, getting help doesn't mean you're not good enough, but rather that you are working to be better.
9) Accept that not everyone is going to like your stories.
Be self-critical, accept that not everyone is going to like what you write, and that sometimes that has nothing to do with your story. But with the taste of others. You cannot please everyone.
10) Keep writing.
Last but no the least "KEEP WRITING"
