Plot holes/Tips

When figuring out plot holes write down a at least 2-3 different alternatives to the problem, the ones that seem the most plausible start to extrapolate on it until it is mostly formed.

Keep cutting down the options until you have 2 alternatives and choose which of the two works better and is more simple (doesn't raise more questions than it answers)

Don't use bigger or fancier words just because they're bigger and fancier sometimes it's better and more fitting to just use simple terms!

You get motivated to write by writing the more you right the more you're motivated to keep going and the longer you wait the more daunting the thought of writing becomes so just write and don't worry about how it sounds because you can edit later!

Don't try to copy another writers style just because their books are popular write your own way and have your own style

Don't have too much outside stimulation like tv or music while you're working if you're trying to be more productive, you'll think better and be able to write better and faster without the distractions :)

I've found a lot of great writing tips (including some I've written here) on different instagram pages made by literary enthusiasts it's helpful to have them on your feed to remind you of certain things and to remind you to keep writing even if you feel it's not going well.
