This section is dedicated to all the writers out there.  Keep writing. 
 
"Description begins in the writer's imagination, but should finish in the reader's."
~ Stephen King
 
Rod is compiling a library of resources to help writers of all levels.  We all continue to learn and evolve our writing skills through development and life experiences, so Rod hopes that all writers will find some elements of this resource helpful from time to time.
 
If you have specific questions you can also use the contact form and Rod will answer them personally for you.
 
One piece of general advice before you start browsing these pages is to write and do it often; the more you write, the better you will get at it and the easier your writing will flow  You need to assign yourself regular timeslots in which to dedicate all your attention to your writing.  Those timeslots can be anything that fits in with your life, but you must stick to them and make them part of your routine.  Rod finds that you should at least write a small amount EVERY day, even if it is just for half an hour, but if you can't manage that, then at least set yourself 3-4 timeslots per week.
 
Good luck and keep writing.
