Practice makes perfection.

In every column I have ever read about writing, and the art of it, they all say the same thing; Writing is the key towards perfection. You won't get anywhere if you don't write. Is not just having a great idea for a story and then leave it somewhere in you computer, hidden in a folder. You have to put your butt in the chair and write. Write a little. Write a lot. Simply write. A page a day in a year is 365 pages.

Fear of been rejected? J.K Rowling was rejected dozens of times; Stephenie Meyer was also rejected, many times before they actually gave her a contract. They said she will never get anywhere with a love story between a vampire and a human… Guess who's laughing now?

Every writer I know has started somewhere with a great idea, and after is been written, and they have attempted to publish it they have been rejected as well. But that never stopped them; in fact that is what made them stronger. Practice is a requirement towards everything in life. If you don't practice you won't get better. So what if I suck at first??? I will continue writing until I don't suck anymore…So please, don't judge me if you haven't read anything I have written

Seeking Reviewers !!

Is hard to create a story you want everyone to enjoy, but is harder to hear what will they think of it. Is a though world out there and someone must do it. I have been editing my book 'Doubt' for a month now, and out of 50 chapters I'm down to 10 until is finally done and ready.

Here is the thing..

I need a few good friends who can take a little of their time, and read the first two chapters of my book. Is around 21 pages, and it wont take you more than an hour. If you want to help me out, I need only two things from you..

1.. Send me an email at shameyn79@hotmail.com  with what format you will prefer, Adobe or Words.

2.. Follow my fan page on Facebook - 'The Last One'- and post your small review there.

If you are up for it, let me know.. You might be surprised with my style of writing, but then again I'm only starting, and I have so much to learn. Still, give me a chance. You never know.
Keep in mind, my story haven't seeing the hands of a proffesional editor, yet.

I will wait for those emails..
Lots of love
Shameyn..
