Hi pretty people out there. Can you help me with ideas/hints regarding writing books and novels. I just started writing my novel yesterday (2009/06/07) but ran out of ideas. How can I just be like other people and just write and write. This is the first time I try something like this. Hope to get some help. I do not want to quit what I started.

since you have started already, you could sit back and think of an outline which will guide you on how to develop your story. at least you will have ideas on how to proceed, rather than staring at the computer screen without any ideas of what to type. i also learned that when we write for the first draft, just pour out our thoughts and emotion. don't think of forms and grammar. they constrain our freedom of thoughts. after pouring out ideas, that's the time we can polish it. goodluck. i envy you. i always want to write, but i never have the courage to really sit down and start writing. i hope someday i can do what you did.

Thanks a million mensab - You can start as well... I like the "Just do it!" philosophy on letting things to happen.

first, it depends on what sort of genre of writting you do. if you are writing romance, well you can get ideas all the time from friends and wedding websites. the beauty of being a fiction writer (i am assuming here) is that you can change anything as you fancy, making it as outrageous or believable as you desire. usually, with writing, all you need is a root idea which generally blossoms from there. good luck.
