An Interactive Writers Help Site Compelling You to Write Everyday
So you’re a writer. Or you’ve been a writer, or want to be a writer. Whatever your story, you’re here because you’re looking for writing help, support, encouragement, or inspiration. But maybe you should just ask yourself. What am I really looking for? We’re here to tell you, it’s not what you think it is. Somewhere along the way you thought you were a pretty good writer, or could be; maybe you read a lot and fancy you could improve on most of the novels you devote hours of your life to. Or you’re the type of person who looks at the world and your life and sees everything as a potential story waiting to on be written, and written by you. Whatever your particular fairy-tale (until now), do you know what you (most of you visiting this site) have in common? We do. What you have in common is that you’re not actually writing – you’re merely thinking about writing, you’re reading about writing, you’re dreaming about writing, you’re dabbling at writing; you’re probably even doing an awful lot of talking about writing. But if truth be told, you’re not writing! But here’s the other reality you all share: for your own well being, you need to decide to just begin, to just do it, to put a pen to paper or sit in your chair and start banging on your computer keys. You need to just begin to fill up pages and begin now. Or…give it up, do something else and replace that smoldering place in your belly with a burning fire of a dream you can actually forge into reality.
At Let’s Write.com if there’s one thing we know, it is this: the difference between successful writers and frustrated writers is that SUCCESSFUL WRITERS ACTUALLY WRITE! It is quite that simple. So now that you are here, what can we do for you? Naturally, as a writer’s site, we have articles and links to articles with the writing help available in many places. Whether you want to write an article, a poem, a short story or a novel, we have all of those resources. Should you be so lucky to be looking for agents or publishers, we even have those references. We certainly have the usual tips for overcoming writer’s block or submitting your manuscript. We have that; plus for added support, you can participate in our writers’ forum and check out local writers workshops. But we call our site LetsWrite.com for a reason. We want you to write! We’re not against you reading if it helps, but we can say with 100% certainty that your problem is not that you haven’t read enough about writing, YOU HAVEN’T WRITTEN ENOUGH of what others should be reading!
Here’s the deal. We believe that most writers actually produce when they have a deadline such as you may have had in creative writing classes. In the real world, unless you’re an author like Danielle Steele or Stephen King, there is no deadline; no publisher is checking the mail every day hoping for your manuscript to arrive. If you decide to register for free at this website, we will monitor your writing production. You need to commit to whatever number of daily or weekly pages you feel is reasonable for you at, say, 300 words per page. Then you have to start writing and email us your allotted output. It should be new material and just a first draft. The next day you keep going where you left off. At Let’sWrite we’ll check for word count and email you confirmation that you’ve honored your commitment. Don’t worry about perfect prose; you want to get your idea on paper and keep your creative juices going; revision is for later in the process. We will continue to send you an email reporting your progress or lack thereof – unless you beg us to stop. Our hope is that our little nudge will motivate you to write. At signup we guarantee total non-disclosure of your writing content, but you are free to post your work on the forum if you want member feedback. If you are not in the process of a writing a short story or novel, you can also choose from a list of writing exercises to get
