“I’d like to write. Can you guide me on how to do that?” No. But here’s what I can tell you as someone who has practiced several types of writing for 10+ years.
1a. You can write simply because YOU WANT TO. The end. You don’t need anyone’s permission. Start the Substack. Write the blog. Finish the short story.
1b. Put it out there/promote it so others can read it.
2. The art of connecting with people’s hearts with your words is learnable. Learn it.
3. Don’t be afraid of mistakes. You can learn from them.
Three more things:
1. Read a lot. Study what you enjoy. It helps you develop taste and style.
2. Sometimes your words will land. Sometimes they won’t. Life goes on.
3. Be your own motivation.
Masterclass over. 😅 Now, go forth and write.
