Hi, guys. I haven't posted on this thread since I join so I guess I wanted to ask if anyone has some tips on writing since I really want to become an author. I met the author of my favorite book series and we have sort of become friends. I am going to see her soon at a writers festival and am planing to start writing a story one that won't just be another manuscript I never bother finishing. So yeah I need tips, thanks — Rin out!

Try >>this<< and the other various workshops in the menu on the right.
Holly Lisle also has bigger workshops you have to pay for (her clinics cost around $10 each - Plot, Character, Culture, Language, World and How to Write Page-Turning Scenes), and they're even better (I own them all, so I know). Haven't yet found another author who is also such a great teacher (they may be awesome authors, even better ones, but to my mind they don't have the teaching skills Holly has).

Then there's also >>this site<<. It has a lot. Some of it I don't agree with (like that article about how stories about dragons suck - though I'm not sure if it's just because it's not very clear what is meant by basic plot), but every author is different, so just pick whatever works for you (though before writing anything off, try it at least once).

Personally, I go more for Holly, since she's a published author with decades of experience - in both traditional AND self-publishing. (And because her workshops work for me).

And there's also >>this site<<. It's Jim Butcher's livejournal on which he posted his advice. You need to start from the bottom, since the newest entry is at the top.
He's the author of The Dresden Files.
