I am thrilled to finally announce a project that I have been working on with Simon & Schuster for the past year:
Whether you’re a young writer looking for tips, a teacher hoping to educate your students about creative writing, or a homeschooler looking for some fun new lessons, Mission: Write should appeal to you. There are currently six videos (with more coming in the future) hosted by me — and accompanying lesson plans written by the brilliant educator, Rose Brock.
Best of all, it’s free! So take a look for yourself. Just click here to watch and learn!
Mr Gibbs,
I always love your books and I wonder where you get your ideas from?
I can never seem to get past the introduction for writing. It is always hard for me. Also how do you write your books so quickly lots of other authors take like 3 years to publish there books? Also how did you get interested into writing books? How is the publishing process of the books? Would you advise to publish it yourself or get someone else?
Aspiring Writer –
I explain some of the details about where I get my ideas on my FAQ page and my blog. And I answer your publishing questions on the Writing Advice page of this website.
I have always loved writing, ever since I was very young. And I have spent most of my life looking for ideas to write about, so I still have many, many ideas.
The introduction is the hardest part for many authors (including me). Just get something down and then jump ahead to the rest of the book. You’ll probably end up rewriting your intro plenty of times, so there’s no need to struggle trying to make it perfect the first round.
