1. Educate yourself. Don’t fall for this idea that great writers are born and not made – great artists, singers and actors train exhaustively for years. So should writers.
2. Network. If you don’t like to/can’t afford to attend conferences and talks, join online groups. Learn about the industry.
3. Write with focus.
4. Use vivid verbs.
5. Create characters that you want to be with, every day.
