INSPIRE ME TO WRITE!

"Success is a finished book, a stack of pages each of which is filled with words. If you reach that point, you have won a victory over yourself no less impressive than sailing single-handed around the world." --Tom Clancy

BOOK NOTES

Use White Space!

Apply white space. Never make your book look like a wall of text. You will frighten lots of readers away and they may never read your message. Most readers start out as skimmers. Your job is to snag their attention with your well organized copy including white space and attention grabbing headlines throughout your book.

"Good writing is supposed to evoke sensation in the reader--not the fact that it is raining, but the feeling of being rained upon."
E.L. Doctorow

Are you looking for a gift for the aspiring author or writer in your life? You may be tired of giving the usual. You know the pen and pencil set or the blank journal. With a little help from a fellow writer (that's me); you can choose a gift that your loved one will treasure. Besides that they will look at you with an extra gleam in their eye for being so thoughtful. To celebrate the aspiring author in your life here's 7 gift ideas to choose from:

1. Writer magazine subscription
Purchase them a subscription to a journal or magazine you know she enjoys. Writers have to stay knowledgeable in their field. If you don't know what she enjoys, you're probably safe with a publication similar to the kind of work she writes. Poets and Writers Magazine or Writers Digest are safe choices. If you're not sure about those choices, visit the lists of literary magazines on the magazine rack in Borders or at a local independent bookstore.

2. Current year's writers market guide
If the writer in your life is serious about publishing their work, then you can save her the expense of replacing it this year. Perhaps you know her specific market, you can get something like the Novel and Short Story Writers Market, Poetry Writers Guide. Or purchase the Guide to Literary Agents; if you know she has a manuscript in the drawer.

3. Gift cards to office supply store or bookstore.
Writers can always use paper, pens and printer ink cartridges. Or if she's all stocked up she would be thrilled at the opportunity to just buy a book she's been wanting.
