How I Write

Good writing is always about something. Write the argument of your book in a sentence, then stretch that out to a paragraph, and then to a one-page outline.

  • Clean Desk

    As a dedicated writer, I’ve established a set of guidelines that keep me focused and productive when working on my projects. To begin, I prioritize maintaining a clean desk. A clutter-free environment helps me stay organized and mentally clear, allowing my creativity to flow

  • Defined Working Times

    I adhere to defined working times, setting aside specific hours each day to concentrate on writing. This disciplined approach creates a sense of structure and routine, ensuring I make steady progress on my projects while still having time for personal and professional responsibilities.

  • No Distractions

    I strive to eliminate any distractions during my writing sessions. By silencing my phone, turning off notifications, and tuning out external noise, I can fully immerse myself in the worlds I create, bringing my characters and stories to life in a way that engages and captivates my readers.
