William Faulkner, the great Mississippi writer, said, “The tools I need for work are paper, tobacco, food, and a little whisky.”

Every writer needs certain tools to accomplish the task of being a writer. For some, it is a simple assortment of equipment, basically paper and a writing instrument–a pencil or pen–and nothing more while most need a typewriter or a computer and nothing more while still others need a special place with a special ambiance–quiet, background music, lighting, a comfortable desk and chair, and a special beverage–coffee, tea, etc., or like Faulkner, a little whisky.

Today’s writer will most likely opt for a computer of some sort–desktop, laptop, or even a PDA of some sort. Paper is no longer an essential because most work can be saved to a hard drive or diskette, and sent to it destination via the Internet. Tobacco is becoming obsolete as more people are kicking the habit due to the health concerns. Food is still an essential, but others will forgo the whisky.

The computer has taken much of the drudgery from writing. A good word processing program is an essential and there are many on the market but the two most common and acceptable are Microsoft Word and Corel Wordperfect although other can be used. For the financially struggling author there is OpenOffice, which is a free program from: openoffice.org. It has all the power and flexibility of the first two mentioned as well as being able to convert any file to PDF format which makes it possible for any platform to read it whether PC or Mac.

Many experts advise that a writer should have a dedicated place in which to write. I suppose this is true of the freelancer more than the salaried scribbler. Perhaps such an area is more conducive to the discipline needed to put thoughts to paper or monitor screen, but certainly not every author can find such a location. If the writer is a harried housewife on a limited budget in a limited household, such an area might be hard to come by, but it might be profitable to find a spot and use it consistently to make writing a habit. Since human are habit oriented creatures, creating a writing habit seem like a good approach.

Most writers also need other tools: a desk, a comfortable chair, a dictionary, a thesaurus, pens and pencils, and paper of some sort for quick notes–notepad or secretary notebook–a calendar. Others need a radio, a CD player, or connection to the media on the Internet and maybe that little whisky that Faulkner found so helpful.

Like Faulkner, though, the essential tools are pencil or pen and paper. More than one writer, and some very famous ones, was able to create masterpieces with these simple bare necessities. The main tools are the writer’s thoughts and ideas.

Writing articles is one of the best and most effective ways
of promoting your business because it does three things:

*Brands you as an expert. *Makes your marketing efforts
viral. *Gives you content to attract potential buyers.

There are several things you can do to make sure that your
articles get read.

1. Write an article potential buyers will find interesting.
Even if you know your topic very well, it pays to do
research. Find out what changes are occuring in your field
and include that material in your articles. No one wants to
read something that is outdated or inaccurate. Readers will
find your material far more interesting if you tell them
something they don’t already know, and you present it from
your own unique perspective.

2. Submit your article to the right places. Article
directories are a great place to submit articles because
they are high traffic sites. Many offer a wide variety of
categories so you can submit just about any kind of
article. It will also increase your ranking in the search
engines because you are linked to high traffic sites.

There are also other options for submitting your articles.
You can use lists that accept articles, as well as submit
to sites that accept articles on your topic.

The way to find sites that accept articles on your topic is
to do a search in the search engines. Search on your topic
plus the key words “article submission”. Then when you find
sites in your topic, read the guidelines carefully. You
want your article to have a higher chance of getting
accepted. The way to do this is to follow the guidelines.

Here are several places you can submit your articles:

http://www.goarticles.com http://www.ideamarketers.com
http://www.articlecity.com
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/article_announce
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Free-Content

3. Write regularly. Most sites, and especially lists, will
only accept article submissions on a weekly basis, so to
write more often than that, is a waste of time. However,
when you submit your articles on a regular basis, it
establishes a relationship with the reader. The reader will
begin to trust you, giving you credibility.

Credibility is one of the hardest things to establish
online. By writing articles that readers will read, you are
building a relationship with readers. Building a
relationship with the reader will get them to trust you.
Once they trust you, they will buy from you.

Write articles on a regular basis and you can establish a
reputation for credibility online. Write about things that
people want to read about, and you will be well on your way.

I’ve been back in Maryland for almost three years and some days that seems like a lifetime. I miss Hawaii with all it’s beauty but most of all I miss the ocean. Each beach offered a different wave pattern. Some were calm and mellow, perfect for families vacationing in the area. Others had ten foot waves, each adorned with one or more surfers. Still others had thunderous shore breaks, the waves crashing upon the beach and sucking anything it could reach out to sea.

Different moods found me sitting on different shores, watching the waves whether gentle or harsh. The ocean often inspired me. >From these visits came stories of comedy, horror and mystery. The ocean contains an endless amount of material. Characters were waiting to be discovered in family interactions, cautious flirtations and the playful nature of the honeymooners. Every minute brought a new scenario and potential for another story.

I not only derived characters from these visits but settings as well. I took my notepad, or sometimes my laptop, to the beach with me and described a sunset as it occurred. I noted the texture of the sand and the smell of the kelp. I listened to the sounds of the pigeons as the searched the beach for a bit of spam leftover from some Local’s lunch.

For hours on end I watched children play in the surf, noting their various reactions. Some children were terrified of the water, clinging to the parents and screaming in horror as the water reached out to graze their toes. Others were fearless, charging in without a second thought, daring the water to do it’s worse. The reactions of the adults were much less notable. They rarely ran into the surf with complete abandon and those too scared to enter laid on their towels far above the reach of the surf.

It’s amazing how many ideas can be born of one single thing. Tales of the ocean range from adventure to romance. Each individual interprets the scene in a different way. Seeing the ocean from all sides of the island, I understand how diverse each viewpoint could be. Dozens of beaches attracted millions of visitors, each with their own agenda. The idea of the perfect beach varied depending on what the individual was searching for, calm or chaos.

One single entity, the beach, can spark an abundance of creativity. It can inspire a story in every genre; each author picking up different nuances and producing a different tale as a result. One day of sitting on a beach can provide a lifetime of inspiration if you keep your eyes and ears open.

While the beach is often my source of inspiration, any setting can be rich enough to feed a writer’s muse. Take a pad of paper and a pen to a favorite location and jot down notes about what you see and hear. Write about an interesting person you see and what they were doing. You might not use these notes right away, but someday they may become the backbone of a story.

Online readers love free information. They scour the
internet daily looking for the specific information to
solve their problems, help them be successful, live longer
or get healthy. You should join the information revolution
too! Publish your free helpful solution-oriented articles
to the web. But wait!

There are a few things to keep in mind when writing for the
web. Long paragraphs are usually acceptable for print media;
they are not for the web. If you want to write articles that
web users will love to read and put to use follow these
seven simple tips:

1. Make your article scan ready. A study by Jakob Nielson
publicized as guru of web page usability by the New York
Times published that only 16 per cent of his test users
actually read the copy they found online; 79 per cent of
them simply scanned it. Your impatient web readers will
want important information to jump out at them.

Some practical ways to make your text scannable are:
headings, sub-headings, bulleted list, numbered lists, easy
steps and/or typeface variation. For example, compelling
headlines are considered an art. Are you drawn to the
author’s article as “How to Write Web Articles” or “5 Tips
to Write Winning Web Articles?”

2. Keep it short. Get and keep the attention of web
readers by delivering short messages. You put effort into
gaining your web reader’s attention; now make their click
worthwhile with brief compelling copy in bite sizes.
Start with the conclusion. Your readers may not make it to
the end of your piece to get it. Web readers don’t want to
get bogged down in long blocks of text. So get to the point
early and use the rest of your article to support that main
point.

3. Make Your Title Sizzle. Dull titles will not capture
your readers interest. It will make your article fade into
the sea of other boring articles listed in article banks
these days. You have to create a title that will reach out
and grab your reader by the —- urgm…collar is what I was
about to say.

To get your article read, start with a sizzling title.
Make it short. Create interest. Include the main benefit or
solution in your title.

4. Talk to Your Targeted Audience. Your information is not
for everyone. Avoid generalities. Choose a friend or family
member that’s interested in your topic. Write your article
to them. Writing to a friend will make your copy personable
and friendly.

You won’t come across as a fussy hen, do this, do this,
don’t do that. You will connect with your readers as a
friend giving advice. Your article will do a better job of
building creditability for you. Creditability inspires
trust and readers only trust their friends.

5. Add substance. Resist fluffing your articles. Include
practical valuable information in your copy. Everyone loses
when you don’t take the time to impart substance. It
increases the reputation of the web being an unreliable
source of knowledge. Additionally, lack of substance will
block your road to profitable referrals.

Do the research and/or draw from your knowledge and
experience to illustrate. Your stories and real life
examples will meet your reader’s need for practical
information and connect with their emotion. It’s a known
fact emotions will move people to action. Whether you
desire them to act by signing up or making a purchase, add
substance and improve your reader responses.

6. Make it web professional. Create a more web
professional look by using short sentences then format your
page to approximately 65 characters per line. Long stringed
sentences that stream from side to side of the web page
look visually unprofessional. Select a layout for your
article from several short article formats that include the
how-to, tips list, question-answer, problem-solutions and
interview.

Make your introduction and summary short but do add one.
Your web readers don’t want just a list of boring facts and
information. They want to connect with you by reading your
personable introduction and practical tips with a definite
ending or summary. Remember excited readers become
enthusiastic buyers and enthusiastic buyers will refer your
product or service to all their friends.

7. Use your keywords. Thread your keywords throughout your
short article as naturally as possible. Otherwise your copy
will sound stiff and dull. To gain visibility on the search
engines, your site must be “indexed” by their robotic
software.

In its most basic form, they must be able to compare the
code, keywords and other Meta tags with the actual content
of the site. From this they reach a conclusion regarding
the context of the site. This and other factors will affect
how well your copy or website places in the search engines.
You may use these guidelines for all kinds of web copy.

The same elements of using keywords, making your article
professional, adding substance, keeping it short and making
your copy scannable will improve the quality of your
articles. Practice the above simple principles and write
winning articles to distribute on the web everywhere.

The Hero’s Journey is the template upon which the vast majority of successful stories and Hollywood blockbusters are based upon – understanding this template is a priority for story or screenwriters.

The Hero’s Journey:

Attempts to tap into unconscious expectations the audience has regarding what a story is and how it should be told.

Gives the writer more structural elements than simply three or four acts, plot points, mid point and so on.

Interpreted metaphorically, laterally and symbolically, allows an infinite number of varied stories to be created.

The Hero’s Journey is also a study of repeating patterns in successful stories and screenplays. It is compelling that screenwriters have a higher probability of producing quality work when they mirror the recurring patterns found in successful screenplays.

Inner, Outer and Romantic Challenges

In successful stories, the hero has three challenges (inner, outer and romantic). The process of resolving these challenges and the point of resolution is nearly always the same:

Romantic Challenge: Often resolved first and is the reward given for Seizing the Sword and completing the Rebirth Through Death (Meeting with the Goddess and Woman as Temptress stages). In Dances with Wolves (Academy Award Winner Best Film 1990), John Dunbar marries Stands with a Fist AFTER retrieving the guns from Fort Hayes and battling the Pawnee.

Inner Challenge: Often confronted at the Atonement with the Father stage and resolved in the Apotheosis stage. In Dances with Wolves (Academy Award Winner Best Film 1990), John Dunbar (having conquered his romantic challenge) confronts Kicking Bird with the truth about the White Man – that they will come and they will be “as many as the stars.” In Raging Bull (1980), this is where Jake confronts Joey and finds out that Vickie has been sleeping will the whole neighbourhood.

Outer Challenge: Often confronted and resolved at the Master of the Two Worlds stage. In The Matrix (1999), this is where Neo confronts Agent Smith and wins. It is important to note that there are multiple catharses in the resolution of the outer challenge – clearly seen in the Bond franchise, where the hero confronts the antagonist, the lieutenants and more.

The secret to getting the best search engine traffic is often known, but ignored. Many people are hyping new methods, spam bots, and the newest tricks to get more traffic. The best ways are usually the simplest ways. This is even more true in this case.

There is a way that with just investing a few hours of time you can get tons of backlinks from great websites, and lots of people to your website. It’s doing what I’m doing right now. An article.

Yes, that’s right, a simple article. A few paragraphs, and you’re pretty far along. And the better you get at it, the more effective it is. The key to it is submitting it to many article directories. They absolutely love more content. This also gets you massive exposure.

Be absolutely sure to put a link to your website in the resource box. Without that, it won’t work. This is how you are getting tons of high-ranked sites linking back to you. As a bonus, when people read the article, they will most likely visit your website. One single article can results in hundreds of quality backlinks.

Every search engine, especially Google, puts content at the top of its list. You are leveraging the power of all these websites from one article. Normally, as publishers and website owners can grab your article(fully, including links, etc) to use, each article directory site you submit it to can result in 10-20 backlinks almost immediately.

The hotter the topic, the more it gets picked up. If you submit to 100 directories, that’s 1000-2000 backlinks. It’s being done all the time, and I myself have done this, and it works. And the best part, it’s all free!

A person, place, or event that is placed in a time period in which it does not belong is called an anachronism. For instance, Paul Revere riding a motorcycle or George Washington sitting in front of a computer would be anachronisms. You see advertising strategies using anachronisms all the time, especially around Lincoln’s and Washington’s birthdays and Columbus Day. I saw an ad for fluorescent light bulbs that had Thomas Edison working on a phonograph. The caption read: ‘If Thomas Edison wouldn’t have wasted his time on this (incandescent bulb), his phonograph might have been a CD player.’

The relationship between new and old is always interesting. Anytime you can highlight that relationship in your public speaking engagements you will evoke mild humor and create more attention on your product, service, or point.

Here is a good fill-in-the-blank format. Would (big name from the past) have________________ if he had ________________? All you have to do is make a simple relationship and your message will be funny and memorable.

“Would George Washington have thrown his money away in the Potomac if he had ABC investment company on his side?”

Once you get the relationship down, you can adjust the form to suit your speaking engagement. The George Washington/ABC investment anachronism could turn into a good, usable one-liner.

“George Washington wouldn’t have thrown his money in the Potomac if he had come to us for advice.”

When the idea to write a book first popped into my head, I was certain it would become an instant bestseller. Before even writing a word, my book was already being featured on Oprah’ Favourite Books, and I was being sent invitations to appear on numerous talk shows. Then I started the process of writing a book and quickly realized that I needed some things in order before I started.

Writing a book involves research, time, effort, and a quiet place to work. You might have a story in your mind that will amaze the world, but if you don’t put in the groundwork, your story might never get told, or, it gets told to only a relative few. I’d advise new writers to make an outline of your book first, trying to break down the story in your head into chapters. One you do this, you can go chapter by chapter, filling in the details that will make your characters leap off the pages. You’ll need to research your characters well as it is the little details that will make us read more. You’ll need to make sure that even though they are “alive” to you in your mind, to everyone else they are black letters on white paper. Do the research first so that you know everything the reader needs to know about the character.

Take your time. My book has been marinating in my mind for over ten years, falling victim to a major lack of commitment. You need to set aside time in your day, or week where you know that you can write without interruption. Time will be your biggest enemy when writing a book, “I’ll get to it tomorrow” will turn into the 10 year odyssey that I’ve been on. Make time, and stick to your schedule. Set goals to complete a chapter by a certain time, and make sure that you work hard to reach that goal. Nothing is more satisfying than knowing you finished that section, just like you promised yourself you would.

Effort was a stumbling block for me when I starting writing a book. It seemed like I’d start writing, then break it off for a couple of months as a result of my life changing a little. Maybe I moved and couldn’t find the time, maybe I met a new girl and wanted to be with her more than my writing. Whatever the cause, what you put in, is exactly what you get out. No one wants to read a 100, 000 word novel that puts you into a coma out of boredom. Readers want to pick up the book, then not be able to put it down. They want to start reading, then make continuous excuses to pick the book up again and continue reading. Make this happen for them. Give them the time now, so they take the time to read your work later.

Try and find a quiet place to write. If you are a parent like me, try and pawn those little ones to a grandparent for a night so you can put a good eight hours in. Have noisy roommates? Head out to a library or invest in a good, insulated pair of headphones for your stereo. Just find yourself a place where you can get into the mood to write. No telephones going off, no cell, no pager, no television to distract you. Your surroundings make a huge difference on how much writing you can accomplish. Find a place that works for you, then keep going back to it.

No matter how you approach your book writing, if you get on a roll, keep going. You’ll be amazed at how much you can write once you get in a groove. Chapter after chapter will be written, bringing you closer to your goal of writing a book. We’ve all been waiting for you to write that book and tell your story. Now go out there and amaze us!

Good luck!

Writing skills are essential for succeeding in high school, college, and at a job. Writing is not just an end result, but also a process that helps us develop our ideas and think logically. Begin by brainstorming topics, collecting information, taking a lot of notes, and asking a lot of questions. Keep your notes and sources organized as you go.

When developing a topic,one should look for patterns and relationships, try to draw conclusions, try discussing one’s ideas with classmates, teachers and parents. A new os diffrent perspective can help shake up ones thinking.

How to get Started

The first step towards writing a quality research paper is to organize what is to be written. It is always nice to develop an outline to help to stay on track as we write, identifying the main points and what is to be the conclusion. The introduction should give your reader an idea of the essay’s intent, including a basic statement of what the essay will discuss. One should always keep the basic outline of a simple easy first and follow it , further changes can be made as required but the basic layout is followed always. The following are the parts of the basic layout of an essay or a research paper:

-The Introduction

-The Body

-The Conclusion

The introduction should give the reader an idea of the essay’s or papers intent, including a basic statement of what the essay will discuss. The body presents the evidence that supports the writers idea. Here concrete examples should be used and generalities should be avoided as much as possible. The conclusion should summarize and make sense of the evidence presented by the writer in the body (The Keys to Effective Writing, 2005).

These are the steps to be followed before writing any kind of paper or essay. After these basic guidelines are followed ammendments can be made according to the nature of the research paper and according to the different writing styles.

Writing College Research Papers

College courses demand many different kinds of writing that employ a variety of strategies for different audiences. During college, it may be required to write long essays or short answers in response to examination questions or one may be asked to keep a journal, write a lab report, and document the process one uses to perform research. College writing or writing college research papers, also called academic writing, is assigned to teach the critical thinking and writing skills needed to communicate in classes and in the workplace. The quality of one’s writing depends on the quality of the thinking one does about his topic or his assignment.

The whole writing process is divided into three steps namely prewriting, writing, and rewriting or revising phases.

-Prewriting: In the prewriting phase one ponders over the questions like what he has to write about, what are his feelings about the topic to be written, how is the topic to be approached, how to organize the materials and the audience who will be reading the paper.

-Writing: In this phase the plan is implemented by working out the details and fine-tuning thoughts.

-Rewriting: In the phase of rewriting or revising, the material or paper written is reviewed and techniques to for improving it are applied.

During these steps, there are some phases, which also take place before the final draft of the research paper is ready. The first phase would be understanding the assignment or research topic, which has been explained as prewriting earlier. Understanding the assignment or the research topic includes thinking over the fact that what kind of research topic it is and what is the main purpose of the research topic. Then in this context comes the issue of using systematic techniques such as the use of classic strategies, these strategies are ways to develop or organize a research paper, these include definition, division and classification, comparison and contrast, cause and effect, and process analysis.

Another important factor is looking at the topic from a multiple perspective, when a topic is viewed from multiple points of view; relationships which have not occurred before are visible. This approach invites the writer to look at the topic as an entity, as a process or a part of a process, and as a system or part of a system (The Writing Process, 2005).

Doing exploratory research is included here with the prewriting techniques because library research often is a way to generate ideas. As we review the literature on a subject or read in a particular area, we may note ideas that will help us get started with the writing. Analysis, the basis of many other strategies, is the process of breaking something into its parts and putting the parts back together so that one can better understand the whole. When we focus on understanding something better by comparing and contrasting it to something else, we identify and analyze the similarities and differences. Synthesizing information, all the opinions and research in support of the thesis or research paper are incorporated together. The relevant facts, statistics, expert opinion, and whatever can directly be observed with your own opinion and conclusions to persuade the audience that the thesis is correct is integrated. Synthesis is used in supporting the thesis and assembling the paper. In applying the strategy of evaluation after synthesis, first, the criteria to be used to evaluate the subject will be established and then applied to the specific parts of the subject that is being judged, and conclusions would be drawn that whether it meets the criteria.
The final draft is what we hand in as the completed paper. Before turning in the final draft, we should read what we have written all the way through at least once more. a black pen on the final paper. Choppy sentences, poor or nonexistent transitions between paragraphs, grammar and spelling errors, and other characteristics of a first draft should all disappear(The Writing Process, 2005).
