Förlagets beskrivning
As a travel writer you can't rest on your laurels - you need to craft your words to inspire, entertain, inform and educate your audience. It doesn't matter whether your readers are planning a trip or are armchair travellers, you owe it to them to use freewriting take your travel writing from one-dimensional to engaging. Although freewriting is used extensively by fiction writers, it's also an extremely useful tool for nonfiction writers. No matter what type of writer you are, sometimes you're going to to struggle with how to start a new chapter of your book, or get in the right head-space to write your next blog article. Freewriting helps you brush away the lateral thinking cobwebs and forces your mind to rely more heavily on your creative side. Why I use free writing as a pre-writing technique: Writing travel guides and nonfiction books is a very analytical exercise. There's lots of research and fact-checking to be done, and then there's the structural organization of the content. All of these activities rely on lateral thinking. But your words also need to leap off the page to connect with your audience. In order to achieve this, you need to create content that evokes an emotional reaction in your reader. It is all too easy to get stuck in an educational or informational rut when writing nonfiction, but as soon as you tap into the inspirational side of a topic, you're creating content that is no longer one-dimensional. I use free writing in a variety of different scenarios to achieve different end results, and this book explains the basics of free writing, and how you can use this popular writing technique to improve your travel writing. This book introduces you to the concept and approach for freewriting, so that you can put it into practice straight away. Learn when to use it and how to overcome the challenges travel writers face. I show how you can create your own travel writing prompts, but have also included a list of 100 travel writing prompts to inspire your next freewriting session. Just because you write nonfiction, doesn't mean you can't write creatively. So make today the day you invest in your writing career to improve your writing and increase your ability to reach more readers. When you use freewriting to tap into your creative side you'll be better equipped to submit your travel articles to travel industry big-hitters like Lonely Planet, DK Guides, Matador Network, and Rough Guides. Did you know that Lonely Planet has recently launched a new travel magazine? Freewrite your way into magazines, or in featured spots on travel websites. In this book I show you how to: Power through writer's block Get out of a travel writing rut Solve a writing problem Leverage for productive procrastination Overcome boredom Use freewriting as a confidence booster Create a fun distraction Then I walk you through your seven-point plan for achieving a successful freewriting session: Create you ideal writing conditions Set a deadline Determine your freewriting goal Choose your freewriting prompt Relax your conscious mind Don't stop - keep moving Don't edit or censor yourself I walk you through a freewriting example I set myself: "How do I create a niche approach for writing about Paris?", and then provide you with 100 freewriting travel prompts to get your creative juices flowing.
