Want to Be a Writer? Then Do It Properly by Albert Jack


Want to be a Writer? Then Do It Properly by Albert Jack
 
Better Late Than Never
 
Discovering Albert Jack’s book of advice for new writers came too late for my first book, but perfectly timed for my second. Packed with information and guidance, I took copious amounts of notes before concluding I needed the book in print, so I ordered a paperback.
 
I found the most appreciated recommendation about writing narrative: to get the plot and ideas down first, and then add dialogue. This relieves my current struggle of interrupting the flow of ideas while trying to write dialogue, the simple fact to write first and add dialogue later, works. I’ll try a chapter at a time, but the way my mind works, I’m confident in success.
 
Unaware all submissions should be presented with 1.5 line spacing surprised me, I thought 2.0, double spacing.
 
Consider reading, Want to be a Writer? Then Do It Properly by Albert Jack, because it includes easy and significant approaches for writers to develop their skill.
