Dear Steemit-team

We talk and talk and talk

and the words that are spoken are rarely heard, let alone read. A sad state of affairs if you ask me for a platform that says it asks for good writers and readers.
Good is in our eyes a part of entertainment and when it comes to entertainment, it is about spending spare time in a way that gives satisfaction. That can be with a roar of laughter, shedding a tear, doing something together, or studying.

Creativity is hard to find on Steemit and that is why we want to start a writers group or maybe that book club. A group where it is not just about writing but about what we see and experience. A good writer (artist) sees, feels, and shares. How to share that can be learned. It is not as difficult as it seems and no, we do not need a hundred students asking us how to write because everyone deserves to be read and helped. We are happy to make that time even if it takes longer than expected, but an answer (correction) will follow.

On average I, @wakeupkitty, read thirty stories a day and these are also edited or provided with tips (the average writer knows that if s/he writes 500 pages it will be returned with mainly crossed-out sentences (with a bit of luck you have 200 left.).

Six lessons dods not sound much but everyone can learn how to write. It is enough to learn and practice how to see something consciously, feel, and write about it. This can be an image, piece of text, or life experience. Creative writing is all about what's going on in your head and showing it to the world.


@wakeupkitty & @inspiracion

After more talks and sharing our ideas we decided to be a team. We are enthusiastic and will work out a plan for newbies and more experienced writers. If you decide to join you should know that following our lessons means you have to write, will be corrected, we give advice and help you to expand your horizon. As a creative writer, you will find out that writing can be relaxing and fun and even be good without investing hours of thinking and searching for info on the internet.

Introduction Writing

Lesson 1: Awareness

What is it that they see and feel? We are going to consciously look at images and/or a piece of text and get to work with it.

Lesson 2: Free writing

Writing down thoughts, letting our fingers do the work. Yes, a timer is set. The trick is to keep writing. Do you have no idea what? Then there is a prompt and writer's block or not, you have to keep writing! Pauses are not allowed and mistakes? That doesn't matter.

Lesson 3: Short of material

A lot of blah blah blah or 5x thank you and hello every one is not interesting to read. So every word counts... In lesson three it is the diary's turn. One that everyone wants to read, and therefore can be sold. You probably know the bestsellers.

Lesson 4: Stories

By story I mean a fairy tale, something with fantasy and fiction and not your life story or summary of the day with the hashtag story!

Lesson 5: Short text

We are going to write a super short text with a maximum of words or... characters.
This can be a story, a slogan, but also that clickbait title that you need to get someone to read what you have written.
Short and powerful is also what is used in the advertising world!

Lesson 6: Poetry, poems or is it a verse or lyric?

For many, this is heavy, boring material despite the daily confrontation with it. We will discover what words can mean, look for hidden texts, double meanings, and... how much fun it can be to write poems yourself (often much more fun than reading poems).

Test / Exam?

Yes, this is part of our program.
• After writing your first lesson there will be at least one test to see what you have learned.
We plan to use contests hosted by different communities so you can implement your newly learned skills.
• After the 6th lesson, we complete the course where you show what a creative text looks like.


And yes, we are going to discuss the right use of hashtags as well and there will be homework.
