What You Will Expect: An Introduction

***In order to see this picture below clearly, you might need to enhance/zoom your screen. Hold down the ctrl key while pressing the plus button (+) and keep pressing the plus button until it's big enough for you. If that doesn't work, then go to the tool option on the top left hand screen and zoom it until it fits your satisfaction. To go back to your original size hold down the ctrl key while pressing the minus button (subtraction button: -) and keep pressing the minus key until it's back to it's original size. If that doesn't work, do the aforementioned instructions with the tool option to reduce the size***

The numbers beside each picture is there to show the order of the comic.

---------------------------------------------------

Writing is such a complex topic to a wide variety of multifaceted and non-multifaceted writers. Some writers are more imaginative than others, and some are more informational. There are so many genres out there: fantasy, non-fiction, fiction, science fiction, historical fiction, romance, horror, supernatural, occult, erotica. Depending on what genre fits your interest, you might want to research it a little bit (if you don't know it very well).


Throughout this course you will learn: 

For novels/screenplays/scripts: 
- How to create unforgettable characters with a strong personality
- Plots that can make people think (if it interests you) 
- How to describe your characters (physical & mental traits) 
- Strong relationships among characters
- Describing scenery
- Finding your type of writing style
- Working on strong titles/symbols throughout the story

For poetry: 
- Good imaginary/allusion
- Format
- Allegory building
- Write your own poem: test run


TIPS: 

- Start by broadening your vocabulary.
If you already have an outstanding one where you know more of the English language than your English teacher; bravo. If you're like me and the idea of learning new words excites you, then start by reading a University book and write down all the words that you're unsure of. If that seems extremely boring, try reading some poetry on here and writing down words that you're unsure of as well. If you hate the thought of learning new words and it makes you bored really easily then have some fun with it. Google: "really intelligent words to become smarter than everyone around you" or something like that. Google is there for a reason.

- If you're art obsessed or have a general interest in it (or get inspiration from it easily) then use that in your writing.
You can be surprised how well you can paint a picture with words. Getting an artistic view of the scene you're trying to write; use it with art techniques. Not only are you combining two interests to make it all the more interesting, but you're making it relatable for other aspiring artists.

- Write somewhere that's isolated so you won't get distracted.
You have no idea how nice it is to bring your laptop or a pen and a piece of paper and go write somewhere. Down by the river valley, at an isolated park, on a bench somewhere, at the mall if you're writing about something including that, or just anywhere where you get your inspiration from.

I like the part about using art (paintings etc) to inspire the written word. I'm a painter so this speaks to me.
