So my fellow writers, what have you learnt from writing?
I’ve learnt to write from the heart. I don’t have to write about a specific person, culture, language just to feel “diverse” if you get what I mean like when I write a story based on personal experience or preferences it doesn’t need to be fully based on it since the plot of a novel is more crucial but then again, character development is another thing that is important to me.
I’ve learnt to write humorously, even if it’s very dark, wicked or sardonic humour.
Also, I have learnt to write without getting annoyed that auto-correct always ‘corrects’ my spellings according to US English. It sucks that I use UK English most of the time (yes, I spell COLOUR, Americans please don’t cringe ).
I’ve also learnt from writing that it takes a lot of time to write a book so it’s no rush. I’d rather work on my story at my own pace, if my future novel becomes successful then I will make other stories from different genres that I feel comfortable in writing about. Plus, it’s best if I don’t give out any spoilers for my future novel because it’s going to be a huge surprise but beware, there will be lots of plot twists & Easter Eggs.
