Find your idea and genre

Before you start writing, choose a topic you’re passionate about. Ask yourself the right questions:

  • What message do you want to convey?
  • Do you prefer to write a novel, an essay, or an autobiography?
  • Who is your target audience?

Tip: Jot down notes as soon as ideas come, and keep a Lizia lamp within reach so you can write at night without disrupting your sleep.

Structure your story

A good story rests on a clear structure. The classic three-act method works well:

  1. Introduction: Present the characters and setting.
  2. Development: Conflicts, twists, and key events.
  3. Conclusion: Resolution of the plot and denouement.
