What Mystery Books Have to Say

Mystery books have a lot to say.  They have a lot to say about your imagination and what mysteries could be out there in our life today.  Pretty much anything without an explanation would be a mystery.  Mystery books will tell you that.  They say where the mystery is, whether it is a true story or something that is just unexplained in life, and tell you what the answer could be.  This is all very interesting, but there is much more to what mystery books have to say.  They may be telling you to seek out answers for things you don't know about.  Mystery books may also tell you to avoid finding answers so you don't suffer the consequences.  They may say something about a life lesson from a common mystery that people may encounter.  Mystery books may offer a word of advice for dealing with the unknown.

Romance Books Make the Best Movies- Revisited

Romance Books always have something to say to the reader.  They speak to the heart.  They play on our emotions every time.  Romance books make stories that are hard to forget.  They make the best of us when we are looking for something uplifting.  I think they are the best stories we are looking for.  They are becoming very popular.  So many times we see them mixed in with other genres.  Of course, their movies make the best stories, and make the best of us too.  Some movies based on romance books are Enchantment based on the book Take Three Tenses by Rumer Godden, Forrest Gump based on the book by Winston Groom, and The Firm based on the book by John Grisham.  I love reading romance books.  They make the best movies!

What Inspires the Writer In Me- Fantasy Genres Continued

I enjoy writing and reading fantasy genres.  Every time I open up a fantasy book the writer in me cannot put it down.  My love of reading and writing fantasy genres is the cause of this.  What inspires the writer in me to write fantasy genres is when I think of objects that are not alive, and give them human characteristics.  This can seem like nonsense, but you could end up with something extraordinary.  The thought of that inspires me.  It is fun reading fantasy genres that have something like this.  For example, Ella Enchanted with the talking book.  Another example would be trees that talk and have human faces.  The writer in me does not push these ideas away.  They are great story material for fantasy genres!

The Writer And The Reader- The Author That Cares

        As an author, you know why you write.  You love to!  There are countless reasons for every writer.  So reminding yourself on these reasons are healthy ways to keep you writing and inspired.  Don't give up!


     If you're down on yourself or frustrated with your writing progress, and reminding yourself of these reasons doesn't help, try thinking of your audience - the many waiting to be inspired by your words.  Why do the readers read?  They share a lot of the same reasons that you have for why you write.  The writer and the reader share a deep connection.  Concentrating on this relationship is inspiring.

Writing Ideas- Activities For Your Book

     Do you ever feel happy reading your mail or emails?  Do reminders in the mail help you stay on track?  Here's an idea:  there is someone who wants to see you finish your book and is emailing you constantly, everyday, to remind you and to give suggestions.


     Okay if the message isn't worth seeing you might end up with a crowed inbox, but say that it is worth it.  Sometimes ideas roll in and suggestions of ways to go in the story.  Who?  An agent.  No.  A publisher?  I wish.  A friend?  hmmm....you might call it that.  It's a character from your book!


     What?!  Ha, ha!  A character from your book is a very important individual to be speaking to you because they know how much your book has to offer.  There is no one else who has that special insight.  The author that spends valuable time to put together something that can be shared and provide a joyful experience for those who read the material, should be as eager as the character in their book to get this thing finished!

Writing Ideas- Activities For Your Book

     When faced with a writing dilema, or writer's block, the writer can go with the flow and work with the dilema by going at the pace he/or she is alloted.  We like to think that we can rush our way through the block in our mind and end up with something to work with, but in reality, a book takes time to create.  If you could come up with something that fast, you're like a computer!  Why not have it pre-written, for crying out loud?  Where's the joy in creating the story?

Mystery Books Make the Best Movies- Revisited

When there is a mystery, it is always entertaining.  Mystery books are a big part in all the mystery stories that we like to hear about.  That is why they make some of the best movies.  Movies are a part of the big part of the mystery every one is talking about.  The best part about it is that they are so unknown, it is left to the imagination.  The mystery can go on and on forever.  Here are some movies based on mystery books:  The Da Vince Code based on the book by Dan Brown, The Black Dahlia based on the book by James Ellroy, and Kiss Kiss Bang Bang based on the book Bodies Are Where You Find Them by Brett Halliday.  Some of the best mysteries sparked are covered in mystery books.  It is not surprising that these stories are so popular in the movies.  These are great movies and good reads!
