Do you consider writers as crazy people?




If you are an author, the feeling of madness is familiar to you. Emotions will fly on the paper.

Depending on your mood, your expression will find a place in your story.

Sad? Your lines will be filled with sadness.

Angry? Your letters will burn in anger.

Happy? Your lines are smiling.

If you have the power to forward your message to readers, they will feel it. Primarily if your stories are based on actual events, you can reach to reader's emotions.


Some myths about authors:

They are addicts. Drinking and taking drugs was not unknown to authors, but it is not the label everyone should wear.

They have mental problems. Writers such as Poe and Kafka are usual patterns, but not every author deals with this.

If authors have writer's block they fall into depression. You can see this in movies when the writer is desperate because his thoughts can't go in the direction he wants. Javier Bardem is a playing writer who will do everything to please his fans in the movie "Mama." This horror shows the danger of obsession with someone's fame and idolatry.


However, you can't write well if you don't move your limits. It means you must step into an unknown area. Killing characters, making kinky intimate scenes, and playing with the reader's mind will give your imagination space. 

As I prefer dynamic actions in my books, I also love to read them. Slow descriptions in the book are dull for me. 

Can you write well if you are not a little crazy?

Sometimes, your readers are not reading your book. They pretend they read, instead of this they are scrolling pages and write reviews, thinking they are doing a favor. A real reader will need time to read book. It is not fast eating and swallowing, there is much more in reading books. It demands your time, focus and attention, also understanding. That is why I read 20-30 books per year, I can't do more. A book review can talk much about reader. If the review is short, it could be a sign that a book is not read. Maybe I am wrong, maybe a reader did not enjoy so he left only a note. How to know your book is not read? There are no sign of reading pages in your...
