How to build a free tool for writers – Writing Reminder – the KISS way
Writing Reminder – Our proposed solution was simple to implement for us and accessible by any writer (not only the members of the Asengana Community). Preferences were for daily, weekly, or monthly. Personally, I prefer daily.

How to create a consisting writing practice – a hero’s journey
Do you have a hard time sticking with writing? Check out these great tips to help you create a consistent writing practice.
It’s called writing skills for a reason
If you practice, you’ll see improvement. If you don’t practice, you won’t. It’s that simple. Saying “I can’t do it” is self-defeating and does nothing for you.

It’s a pleasure to answer back to writers and tell them “Hey, we made last night the change you suggested. Please check and let us know if it’s what you needed. Also, thank you because we are sure the other writers will benefit from it too.”
And then comes the other type of feedback revolving around the next two ideas…

“Have you read my book?” expectation vs. the reader’s goodwill
Reading your book competes not only with other books but with all other activities I do in a day. It competes for a precious resource: my time. Even offering me a free book it’s not enough. I know it’s not what you expect to hear. After all, it’s your mind’s baby in which you poured hours of work, your soul on paper.
Let’s stop here and now and accept the definition of a bestseller: it sells.
The writer in me cringes to write this. After all, what makes a good book should be the storytelling skills of the wordsmith.
The book market for the genre I write in is huge
Be smart. It’s not sexy to start small, but it’s the best place to start.
Why is that famous writer coming to that small convention every year?
Asengana was born of the idea that the writing process needs more than just creativity and then modeled based upon the conclusions of many conversations combined with a lot of hard work needed to convince writers to open up about their success.
Beyond the noise awaits the reader?
You’ll notice a lot of opinions about how good or bad a famous writer is. They are visible, known and easy to attack. The professional writers also don’t give a…
