How to get inspired.

So I know that those who wish write a book want to know where to start. They want to ask another author how they do it. I have been tempted myself to do the same thing at times. Sometimes I just wanted to give and forget about my dream to write.

I started doing online research trying to find other people who give advice on how to write. It all discouraged me even more. I didn't know if I was going to finish my first book and get it to where it is today.

Nonetheless I kept writing. I could give my tips on how to write, which I will, but the best advice I can give is write the way you want to. I have no pointers for other inspiring authors. I have no way to inspire, unless reading what I wrote inspires you.

My tips on how I write is when an idea comes to me I write it down. Everything that is there I write it down on paper. As for writing the story. I start at the beginning. With "The Dark of Night" I started with the beginning, exactly what the beginning of the book starts out as, but it was then chapter one. I think when I was on either chapter 2 or 3 is when the ending popped into my head. At that moment it wasn't the end. I was still trying to figure out where to put it. It took a few days to figure out where it should go. When it finally got it spot in the book I could finally go on to finished writing.

Apparently it isn't going to be the last time I write a book that. When I started the 2nd I got the ending as well. It actually helps me get the beginning to the end. It helps me know where I need to get to. There is still a lot of work in between. One I have a beginning and an end I find it so much easier to figure out how to get everything in between.

As for other tips. I have none. I only have what it is I do. It may not be perfect, even in the end. These are my ideas and not everyone will like them. It may not be how you write. Just put it on paper, or on computer, whichever is the way you write.

My advice to you is write how you want to. It is the only advice I can give that will be the most helpfully.

Thank you!

It's that time of year again!

It's that time of year again. The time when everyone is racing around to buy presents. The time when everyone gets stressed when things get out of sorts. When they can't find the one special thing that someone in the family has been asking Santa for.

I know I'm guilty of stuff like that. Mine, not so much those reason per say.  I have other reason to stress, but none is a big deal.

I know it has been awhile since the last time I posted, but I need to post something. Yesterday on my Facebook page that on December 17th until the 19th my book The Dark of Night will be available free for all you kindle users out there.

And the count down begins!

Remember on the 17th to the 19th it will be free to download on any kindle or device you use the kindle app on.

Don't have a kindle? You can download it for the PC and you can download it on your phones and other tablets. Be sure to do that before or on the 17th to get The Dark of Night for free. 3 days only. After that I may have it marked down for as long as I can before Christmas and the New Year.

Be sure find me on Facebook and Twitter. J. R. Tyger on Facebook and @author_jrtyger on Twitter.

Thank you!
