Abstract

[Writing is not an easy task and does not come naturally to many. This chapter aims to give you practical tips on how to become a better writer. As such, the chapter starts off by describing on what goes on behind the writing process (which consists of three main phases). The chapter then concentrates on giving you the necessary guidelines on how to create that first draft. I will also be giving you tips on how to overcome certain challenges, specifically on what to do when you have a writer’s block. Finally, it is important to realise that writing and editing go hand in hand. However, for the sake of simplicity, the topic of editing will be covered separately, i.e. in Chap. 11. It is advised therefore that you should read this chapter and the next in one sitting.]
