A note

Things have been good lately, but today morning I didn't complete my 1,000 words. That's why I'm writing this.

I was doing good with the book, being stuck at one point, but then I found out the way and wrote it better. Tried this and that in different parts, to figure out what works for me, and it turned out ok, for me now, at this moment. I don't expect it to be easy, and I'm gonna stay with it, stick with it, and work on it. Let's see how it goes.

I only read Vietnamese books these days, not much of English materials. English words flow through me more slowly than before. Guess I have to begin again English book reading, and restart my 10 new words a day. And a Vietnamese dictionary, feeling even my Vietnamese vocabulary is not enough for my writing.

Something very important I have to note down, as last night I thought to open the old dairy and wrote it, but now I can't remember what.

Anyway, I attended a friend birthday just last Tuesday, and saw how her fans appraised her upon her beauty, her writing. What I learn from that is, readers feel a piece of writing good, that means it says what they think, and readers will like the writer if he tells what they all think but cannot put into word, and they will be deeply moved by seeing themselves in between the words written.

The article that made me famous was also because I wrote what many people thought at that time, but didn't say it. I connected them in the words, they felt the empathy in my writing. Keep this in mind, and always think of what a reader likes when reading the book, I will create a product just fine.

Another trick in writing, whenever feel stuck, I just imagine the book on shelf, thinking what would be perfect at that point, what my readers expect in that part, then I put my love in it, try different styles of writing, then get over it, and move on. Mom gave me this idea. It helped.

OK, that's all for now. Will add if something more comes to my mind during the day.

* Note: check all the information parts and insert my story/experience or price comparison and 2 sites comparison to provide the best vision for readers and help the articles to be more attractive (as per publisher's advice).

Onward.
