How To Button
   1) Only write when you get an idea. If you force yourself to write, your work will suffer.
2) When you get an idea, even if it does not fit with your current story, write it all down. That way you can later find a way to work it into your current piece, or start a new one all together.
3) When you are having a long writers block, give your piece to a friend or two, to read. They can give you honest criticisms and possibly, some ideas to get you out of your writers block.

Ellen Schreiber:
1) Have fun!!! If you think writing is a chore, then it's not for you! Find something else that intrests you more.
2) Try to stay original. All of the things you put into your story may seem original, but if you reread it, and it sounds like another story change it. You don't have to change the whole story, just enought so it sounds original.
3) Get lost in your story. The characters you write about should come from you, so be involved in every aspect of your story.

Lisi Harrision:
1) Write in a journal everyday to keep your writing skills up. It also makes for great practice.
2) Share! Share! Share! Give your work to people who you know you can trust and who you know will be honest.
3) Do not be rude. Take any and all criticims with a smile and a nod. If you're being rude, it's likely nobody will want to help you anymore.

Roz Monette:
1) Write for 10 minutes a day. Have a journal just for your daily writings so you can refer back to them when ever.
2) Limit your descriptions. It is important to be descriptive in a story, but try not to put too much description in. For example, if you are describing a bed room, only make the description a pagagraph long. Not a whole page. You will bore the reader that way.
