Produktbeschreibung
Many of my students and others struggling to achieve their writing dreams attribute the struggle to an anatomy deficit. There are no holes in your anatomy and mom didn't forget to put writer's genes in your milk. Like a GPS system, your brain needs to know which direction you are heading. Your thoughts and actions act like mapping coordinates. The freelance writing practices in this book will help keep you and your brain on the right road. They will also act as a workout routine to help you become a high-performance writer. Writing is like any other career. Learning and practice help you become really good at something you love. Visualizing yourself as a writer and pounding out words, sends messages to brain cells that specialize in that area. Has an idea ever turned you on your heel? That would be your instinct at work after receiving directions that you are in need of an idea. Brains operate on the road map you provide. Putting out the word that you want to be a writer puts your brain into motion. In turn, it sends you ideas, string together delectable sentences that take you by surprise, and move you in the direction of a completed pitch, story, or book. They could just as easily send you to the grocery store for eggs, gambling on the stock market, or tell you how to build a bridge. Brains don't randomly send you on a wild goose chase without having a little help from your thoughts and actions. Brain cells that nurture creativity and writing need proper exercise and nutrition. There are more brain cells than we realize working diligently behind the scenes to nurture writing dreams into reality. Some brain cells help us put words to paper despite our fears and doubts. Others keep us organized, help us conduct research, or edit our writing. Brain cells transform scattered ideas and words into articles and stories that have the power to make readers laugh, cry, cheer, or consider life from a different angle. Writers, like athletes, need to learn how to maintain a healthy, creative anatomy. Athletes cross finish lines because they work hard, exercise and feed every muscle. Starting out, they may have some understanding as to 'what' needs to be done, but may not know 'how' to go about it. That's why they have coaches and trainers. Consider me your coach and this book a training manual for helping you become a high-performance writing athlete.
