The writer who wrote the Harry Potter series suffered a lot from rejection at the beginning, but with perseverance and determination she managed to break all of her restrictions and achieve a unique success.

Author JK Rowling. She is a writer who can speak about defeat and victory, she suffered a long period of depression and frustration and was saved by writing, she began writing her successful series Harry Potter for her son and this series succeeded to the extent that she roamed the world like a storm, she sold millions of copies and translated into more than twenty languages ​​as well as translated on the screen. However, this series initially had trouble with publishing, it was rejected by all publishers at this time, no one wanted to risk publishing a work like Harry Potter (shocking fact: the publishers don't know everything).

On her blog, Mrs. Rowling shared a set of writing rules that I chose for you, the best of which are:

Rule # 1

Be assertive when it comes to hours of writing , it's funny that even though writing has been my real job for several years now I still have to struggle to find time to do it. This is especially difficult for those with a family. Our loved ones come first, so our loved ones need to understand that we need time to write. Establishing reasonable boundaries with these loved ones is a crucial step for a writer. "A mother needs fifteen minutes of calm."

Rule # 2

You have to work. It's about discipline , it's easy to forget that writing is your business. We don't always feel like doing our job. We definitely don't always feel inspired. To be a writer, we must train ourselves to sit and write even when we don't feel like it. “The revelation works for you. You don't write according to his request and connection - you train him to appear when you write. ”

Rule # 3

I stopped pretending to myself that I wasn't anything other than who I was, and started directing all my energy to finish the one work that mattered to me. Yes, it is possible with another job. And with other responsibilities. You are a writer. That means you write, the runner is running, the painter paints. The chef cooks. You're a writer, write, accept this, strive to believe it, and see where it takes you.

Rule # 4

Write about what you know. Your interests, feelings, beliefs, friends, family, and even pets will be your primary materials when you start writing. This does not mean that you need to experience aliens in order to write about them. This means that all good stories have a universal application. It doesn't matter what your culture is or what language you speak; All humans know what it means to be lonely, feeling neglected, frustrated, determined and finally being with friends.

This happens because the creators have used their interests, feelings, beliefs, friends, family, and even their pets to tell the story. You already know how to tell a touching story because you are one. If you've had feelings before, or have responded to anything, you already know what the general app looks like.

Rule # 5

I always advise kids who ask me for advice about being a writer to read as much as possible. Jane Austen gave the same advice to a young friend, so I'm right here.
Read a lot, the more you read, the greater your arsenal of words , the better your understanding of metaphors, poetry, beauty, emotion, and sympathy. The more you read, the better writer you become. It's like learning more dance moves or playing difficult notes on an instrument. The more you learn, the better.

Rule # 6

Perseverance is absolutely necessary , not just to produce all of those words, but to survive rejection and criticism. Here is one of those unpleasant facts about posting: You will be rejected often.

Hope there was a way around this. Harry Potter has been turned down time and time again because that's the way things sometimes work. And it's not just the publishers: when your work gets published, it also gets bad reviews. Mostly, they'll just be people who don't get what you do intellectually, you'll know. Your heart, on the other hand, will split into a thousand pieces. You cannot stop writing because of this, you should not stop writing because of frustration, keep progressing. Do not stop. When you're rejected, pick up your pen and go.

Rule # 7

What you write becomes who you are ... so make sure you love what you write! In a way: Your beliefs, experiences, and feelings help shape your writing. However, your writing clarifies, corrects, and often reveals your beliefs, experiences, and feelings. There are things you know you have no idea about - but your subconscious mind knows them, and these things will be transformed into your writing. As you write, you'll discover things about yourself. You have to clear things up, too. Writing is a brave and bold project, and a life-changing discovery is part of the journey. Don't let anyone tell you it's easy.

Rule # 8

Failure is inevitable, make it a force. You have to give in to the fact that you waste a lot of paper before you write anything you really like, and that is just the case. It's like learning an instrument, you have to be prepared to hit the wrong notes once in a while, or a lot. I wrote a lot before I wrote anything that I was really happy with. You will write a lot of nonsense. It would take twelve years ... and write a million words. You are on the right path, the same path that your favorite authors take. Accept that it will take a long time. Writing perseverance,

You can do that, writer. We're all on the same track, and that means we can cheer each other on the way. Don `t give up.
