Tips and Advice For Aspiring Writers, Authors, and Poets
Inspiration
Take inspiration from your surroundings.Don’t ignore the ordinary. The mundane can turn into something amazing if you shift your perspective.Save all of your ideas. Store them on post it notes in a shoe box under your bed if you please, but save them. Be Open-Minded
Experiment with all aspects of writing. It’s art, after all.
Don’t get stuck in the planning process. That’s the most common spot writers crash and burn on the journey to writing something meaningful.
Be open to changing the story you’re writing, or ditching it altogether in search of something better.
Learn
Get real experience. Try freelance writing gigs if you’re into that sort of thing.
Collaborate with other writers.
Learn from successful writers. Read other people’s work and nitpick it to find the do’s and don’ts.
Be Realistic
Don’t write to be famous or to earn money (unless writing is your job, but in that case, I assume, it isn’t your first time doing this).
Practice writing, even when you’re not in a write-y mood.
Remember that writing is hard work, and that sometimes, it’s going to be difficult as hell to sit down and force yourself to work, but that’s part of the gig.
Chill Out
Try to enjoy it. Writing is fun, even if it’s your jobDon’t be discouraged by writer’s block. It happens to everyone, and it goes away eventually. You just have to try to work through it.
Reach out for help and advice when you need it. There are lots of people out there who want to help you.
This is all so so so important

So for my transition I have been making...
So for my transition I have been making and selling book related items and I have decided to make this a master post and post links to all of my items at the end of this. I have had a lot of items sold since my last load of updates so I will take the time to update each item separately.
This is for the UK only because of shipping. Everything goes towards my transition.
Payment would be sent through bank transfer or paypal (Through friends and family option please otherwise it takes 10%)
I’ve had questions about donations, I don’t have a gofund me, I would rather feel like you get something in return. But if you wish, you can pay extra for anything you buy. I have had loads of people do this already.
