The Only 12 & a half writing rules you'll ever need....
1. If you write every day, you get better at writing every day.
2. If it is boring to you, it is boring to the reader.
3.Get a writing routine, and stick with it!
4. Poetry does NOT have to rhyme. Poetry does NOT have to rhyme.
5. Resist stereotypes, in life and your writing.
6. Writers read, writers read alot.
7. Make lists of your favourite words and books and places and things.
8. There doesn't always have to be a moral to the story.
9. Always bring your notebook. Always bring a spare pen.
10. Go for walks, dance, pull weeds, do the dishes write about it.
11. Don't settle on just one style. Try something new!

12& a half. Stop reading this, write something!!!

Happy writing!!
