What to Do When You Do Not Know What to Write Don Bernadate

SOMETHING UNDER THE SUNHave you noticed that most professors of music have no hits to their credit? This is despite their great training and expense in acquiring the so-called expertise that they have. They have all the know-how but lack greatly inspiration. Same thing goes in all the arts but more so with creative writers. Those that are highly trained and equipped for the work of writing, end up never writing a sentence! They know all the sentences written, including but not limited to the well and badly written ones and their exotic histories. When they leave the classroom, they simply dry up. But I digress. This book is not about those who studied how to write but who never write a book. And neither is this book about a writer's block. Writers block comes up when the writer has started on a topic or theme but along the line loses his drive. Suddenly, there is no more water in his well. He dips his pen into the ink pot and nothing comes with it. It is as frustrating as a dry mouth in the desert. So we say the man has writer's block but that is not on my mind as I write. Permit me to frog jump semantics! So what is this book about? It is helping writers identify off-shore oil wells of writing ideas! When a person knows what to write about, his pen flows like that of a ready writer. However fiction writers are not a major to this book. Though such persons stand to gain something from this book, they are a minor to its vision. To call a spade by its name, this book is mainly for non-fiction writers. These are a set of books that deal with specific challenges of life and may be talking about real life situations and even living persons! These depend mainly of facts and figures as well as theories, formulas and the calculus of life and living in all ramifications. This book deals with issues of what a writer should write to attract attention, hold the reader spell bound and kept till the end of the book, no matter how long. Have you ever been in a situation in life where you want to travel but there is neither money nor free transporters! That is a major hurdle facing non-fiction writers. This book tells them where to get the money for the desired trip. Happy reading!
