Preparing to Write

Preparing to Write

I hate reading directions. I’m more of a dive right in and see if I can figure things out on my own kind of girl. I’ll take this confession one step further and tell you that in my foolish past I’ve been known to skip an introduction when reading books such as this one. But luckily I’ve learned a thing or two over the years … namely that if the author of a book that’s proposing to teach you how to write and sell your memoir has bothered to include an introduction there’s probably a good reason.

I’d like to think that’s the case here (read: if you skipped it, go back and read it!). I’m hoping that the introduction inspired you to get excited about the genre. Did it give you a “Hey yeah! That’s exactly what I’m aiming to write!” sort of feeling? Good—if it did, then I succeeded. Writing a memoir is a big project, and you’ll need to let that enthusiasm carry you through—while your memoir is coming along well, and also when you’re feeling stuck and on the verge of giving
up the entire endeavor all together. Trust me, it happens.

And if you are anything like me, right now you’re feeling like you just want to jump up and get going already. You want to write! I’m here to ask you to think about a few things before you jump into the wild world that is memoir writing. What if I told you that by just reading these first few chapters and sorting through a few essential issues you could make your story more marketable Hint: Publishers love marketable. What if by sitting back and listening to what I have to say you could learn how to boil your story down into a few essential talking points? Basically show you how to make your story all the more appealing to agents, editors, and media outlets? Handy information, people! Would you still want to jump in and start working on your own? Or would you be willing to listen?

What if by starting out slowly I could save you the trouble of hearing the dreaded “sorry, we’ve already published ten memoirs about women who have quit their corporate jobs to make organic jam for a living.” That’s painful to hear after pounding out 300 pages of prose—believe me. But you wouldn’t have had this problem if you’d read section one first! And lastly, I can help you sort out all of your memories so that you’ll know exactly how to choose the ones that are the post interesting—and avoid the ones that are likely to bore a potential agent to death. Again, while I’m really not much of a fan of getting ready to do anything, I promise you it’s worth it. So let’s get READY TO WRITE.

Cool Combination: Internet And TV

by: Alan Spencer

Households without internet and a television set are hard to find. How about the advantages of a combination of the two? Try internet and tv.

It sounds logical to combine internet and tv. Let’s face it, everyone has internet and very few people don’t own a tv. But it’s not so clear for many what exactly the combination of internet and tv really is. Let alone how you can get it and what it takes to install it. It really isn’t that complicated. Promised!

What are the advantages?

Internet and tv is nothing more than a combination of the two in one package. With a lot of cool perks! For example, you’ll get to know the superb sensation that is digital tv. It’s possible to choose the channels you want to watch. Less costs. But you do need to make sure you’ve got a decent (or at least the one that suits you best) internet connection.

Can I select the channels myself?

No and yes. With internet and tv you can dedide which channels you want to watch. But they come in packages (choose between two) so you won’t be able to pick out the channels one by one. There’s two packages to choose from; a standard package and a premium package. The standard package contains all the channels you’ve got on your tv right now. The premium package extends the channel offer. Pick for example Eredivisie Live (all the Dutch football games live on tv) a theme channel (travel, cooking) or HD TV. With HD TV you’ll watch tv in a whole new way. Thanks to a higher resolution the colors are brighter, the sounds are better (depends a bit on your stereo though) and everything is sharper.

What do I need for internet and tv? Read more of this post

Couples face problems all the time. Sometimes those problems lead to threats of separation and that’s when things really get scary. Find out how to avoid divorce even if your spouse is adamant there’s no way you can save the marriage.

When one spouse has it set in their mind that the only solution to their marital problems is divorce, it leaves the other spouse floundering. How can they save their marriage when their spouse won’t agree to seek counseling or stop their race to court long enough to sort out their differences? Your spouse may be determined to get out of the marriage and you really want them to stay but it feels like you’re trying to stop a speeding freight train with nothing more solid than a piece of tissue paper.

Believe it or not, you can pull out a few tactics that parents, politicians, and business leaders use all the time to encourage people to do something they don’t want to do. It’s called negotiation.

Negotiation is the act of achieving an agreement with another party. In the Read more of this post

Youth and a Cup of Coffee

The youth is the dream of many people because a lot of young people who have done well as pride, but not necessarily healthy bodies, could have done things that should be made of his age. Of course, if we are given a gift that we give thanks to God.

Drink at least a cup of coffee a day can raise young. The fact that I have received, in rural areas with cold to many hundreds of years, even if they are smokers. Their way of life are not anything, the food is a simple no preservative and monosodium glutomat, coffee also at least one or two cups a day and a little sugar.

Coffee shown that the arteries more flexible for those who drink it. Your heart rate is not easy to place, raising awareness and of course coffee sometimes makes us addicts. So why be afraid to take a cup coffee a day.

It is now raining in East Java, good to see another sight at Bromo Mt.

Many people know if a vacation to Bromo with the family quite fun. For most tourists, not knowing the tips to go to the mountain.

Yes indeed it’s not rare if the mountain is synonymous with cold temperature, about 5 ~ 15 ˚ C, viewed from the temperature it was not so cold. This is why people wear the wrong clothes.

For the Europeans or people from the four seasons, it was not cold because it was used. For local tourist temperature was quite cool because the average temperature is 29 ~ 31 ˚ C. To overcome the problem of cold usually people use a thick sweater. But keep in mind to condition the body temperature began to depart from Hotel for example. The trick is Read more of this post
