Default Re: Writing Ideas

Speaking as a writing teacher, the #1 rule about writing is: write what you know. You can't write a couple of chapters without a game plan. I'd forget about writing long about this point, and concentrate on brainstorming ideas and writing on a topic you know something about. A lot of people find writing about their childhood a good way to jumpstart the process.
