Louise WaltersLast week, Louise Walters joined us to talk juggling her writing career with being a housewife, the enduring qualities of Jane Eyre and borrowing writing techniques from other authors. Today, she’s back with her top five writing tips. Louise’s debut novel, Mrs Sinclair’s Suitcase, is out now.

1. Read a lot, especially the kind of books you would like to write.

2. Start writing. Don’t worry about having everything perfect before you start, just get stuck in. Open up a new document and begin to write. Anything and everything can (and probably will) be changed.

3. Don’t impose word counts or set hours spent writing per day. You are setting yourself up for disappointment. 

4. In your writing time, don’t procrastinate. Write with purpose and determination.

5. Enjoy it.
