So far you have found the 3 words that will help you improve your writing, you have understood that you are a writer and you have identified the 4 pillars of your writing : writing in 2013 will be easier, not because writing has become easy - it never will be - but because now you write with new awareness. I want to start with a phrase that I have always identified with, a phrase that has become famous in a short time. I'm talking about what Tyrion Lannister, one of the best characters in George RR Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire saga , said to Jon Snow, Eddard Stark's bastard son. Never forget what you are, for surely the world will not. Make it your strength. Then it can never be your weakness.
Armor yourself in it, and it will never be Phone Number Dataused to hurt you. “Never forget what you are, because the world surely will not. Make it your strength. So it can never be your weakness. Armor yourself in it and it will never be used to hit you.” The translation is mine, literal and not poetic like some that are circulating, but I preferred to use my own words and not others'. The gist of what has been said, however, is clear. If you will be yourself, if you will abandon clichés and fashions, if you will not be afraid to dare and write what you have inside, however raw, shocking, disturbing, morbid, terrible it may be - and I'm not necessarily talking about horror stories, but in general – if you write what you feel, then the road to your success will be marked. It doesn't mean that anyone who follows this method will be successful: the question of the validity of the writer and what he writes still applies.
You are Jon Snow Don't forget who you are : you are what you write and whoever reads you knows you. Your readers will not forget what you wrote and what you stand for. Don't forget it either. Make it your strength : this is precisely the strength of your writing and of your being a writer. It's your identity . What you write can never be your weakness. Your writing is your armor : no one will be able to hit you on what belongs to you, on what you write as a flow of emotions, sensations, thoughts, dreams, desires, fears, philosophies, beliefs that come from you. Your writing is an integral part of you as a writer, but also of you as a human being. Your writing is human. Writing must become your direct connection to the unconscious. Because that's where it all starts.
