The temperature in that library had to be reaching 100 degrees. Oh, that’s right, they turn the air off in the summer to conserve money. Every possible fold in my body was dripping sweat. I know my face and neck had to be “Fifty Shades of Red”. At least as red as a cherry red Firebird. Of course, I had to inherit rosacea from my mom and every time I get the least bit stressed, I tend to light up like a bright red-light bulb, lucky me.

Earning A Living As An Indie Writer
“Start writing, no matter what. The water does not flow until the faucet is turned on”— Louis L’Amour. For any aspiring writer, venturing into freelance writing would be the best foot forward. We all know it's very hard if not impossible for a beginner in the publishing business to land a mega-deal with any publishing house. So, the only option you(we) have is starting small.

Once The Rain Stops.
Rainy days are always ingrained in my head. They were the days I enjoyed the most. I liked the feeling of raindrops falling on my face, like freckles were being painted on. I always found it funny how cold by fingertips and toes would get, when normally my own body heat would roast me alive. I always got excited about finally getting to wear my favorite raincoat that is always buried deep in my closet. I enjoyed the way the Earth’s scent would seep into my clothes and linger for days. I loved the way the world always went silent, while the sky cried. Rainy days always made me happy because I finally had someone to cry with. It’s never apologetic about it isn’t it? Whatever outcomes lie afterwards. It doesn’t care if its storm wreaks havoc or if it creates a bountiful spring; it cries simply because it feels to do so. I always admired the Rain for that. Well, the Rain was all I had to admire for that.

I Didn't Know Who My Main Character Was Until After I Published My Novel
Yuzuko Shikumi has always been a mysterious character to me. Her name written in Japanese is 仕組み 柚子 (ユズコ). 仕組み (Shikumi) translates to structure. 柚子 (Yuzuko) can be seen as a translation of citrus child. I picked the name Yuzuko after reading the Citrus manga about two stepsisters who engage in a romantic relationship. The main character of that show is confidently called Yuzu.

Five Steps To Activate The Flow State of Writing and Beat Writer’s Block
The flow state is the state in which we give our full attention to the action we are doing. In the flow state, we are spontaneous, relaxed, joyful, and free from distractions. I learned that the flow state also helps to overcome writer’s block.

How Writing Skills Can Affect a Career?
proassignmenthelper.com Writing is taught from a very young age--it is very early in one's education, for example, that they are taught how to write their own name and how to write the letters of the alphabet--and these skills are developed throughout an individual's time in the various phases of schooling. Everyone learns how to write, but not everyone is taught how to use their writing skills effectively enough to communicate through writing or able to write effectively, in general. Individuals often face many issues and struggles when attempting to write effectively, especially if they are never taught how to do so. For example, people can find themselves struggling with proper formatting issues or struggle finding the correct words and phrases to use in order to write effectively. If a person is not taught how to write effectively, it is partially due to a lack of development in their writing skills, and this can lead to issues not only while a person is in school and being graded on the use of their writing skills, but also when a person is finding or attempting to move up in their current career.
