It's midnight.
There's thick fog.
You're in the countryside.
There's a cold feel to the place.

Once you have the outline for your setting, imagine yourself there. Close your eyes if it helps (after you've read the following...)

- What do you see? For example, what buildings or natural formations? Are there any people? Animals, plants?

- What do you hear? Smell? What textures can you feel? Can you taste anything? Use any or all of your senses.

- Zoom in, make a note of details.

At this point, write as much as you like, but later, edit ruthlessly. Too much description can be boring!

"When I want to write poetry, I have this conscious feeling of using as less words as possible. I attempt to say the least, and mean a lot more."

Do you guys feel the same way? Please write in comments below.

Free writing in 3 steps
1. Completely clear your head. Take a deep breathe and relax.
2. Don’t concern yourself with the rules of grammar. (Very important)
3. Write your heart out for 10 minutes.

The free writing procedure
» Set a fixed time for writing.
» The recommended times are 5, 10, or 15 minutes.
» Once the time is completed stop writing.
» After you are done go back and read the writing slowly. As you read, highlight some of the key points. These points may be used for later topics.

Helpful #tips
» Once you start the time it’s time to write!
» Even if you have to write, “ I have no idea what I am typing”, get the thought out.
» As time goes on you will become better at shaping the X minutes into a single idea.
» Remember to ignore spelling and grammar mistakes.
» Set a schedule for yourself, daily or weekly are two good examples.

The point here is to free your mind, not to write the next epic odyssey.

See the image and write a short story with a max. of 400 words. Add an apt title and describe the image in the form of a story based on your own thoughts.

If those three figures in the image were the main characters of your story, think of:
- why they are here at this place?
- what are the character traits?
- why they three are together?
- what they are talking about?
- what role as main characters they play in your story?

A writeup a day keeps your bogggling writer-blocks away!

How Do I Write A Death Scene?
Step outside your comfort zone to perfect the death scenes.
1. Don’t be afraid to get gruesome
2. Have them a sacrifice themselves
3. Throw in a red herring
4. Duel it out
5. Give the Big Bad character their comeuppance
6. A death with dignity
7. Make an example of them
8. Give your character a second chance

Stories are built on emotions and death portray and connects people on that emotional level. Whatever death scene you are writing, it must make sense for reader. [Read More]
