Looking it from a different perspective

Saturday 11th, I went to a book fair organized at the gardens of plants in Saint Cyprien. It was a lovely place. This time, I took on the role of a reader to visit several authors and authors. This experience was very enlightening professionally and I thank them. Some have explained to me what is important for them in their writing and what they think about organizing a fair. I have listened carefully to them, and I have presented myself and our exchanges have been interesting.
This immersion as a reader brought me another perspective on the profession of writing. Meeting other artists is also a way to be ready for your own meetings / conferences and create opportunities for collaborations.

Structuring a story

Structuring a story can be very important at some point of your writing. Among my favorite tools, the mind map is a useful program. On linux, “view your mind” is easy to use but there are many others including on different platforms.

How to prioritize your notes

Do you need to prioritize your notes? A linux software can help you.

Personally, I used it as a complement with Libre office. For real, at first sight, this software appears complex and closer to computer development than to writing. But it is much simpler than you think.

Here is a link to this tool.

 

How to enlarge the lyrics of your song

This afternoon, after working one of my guitar compositions, I converted the text into an e-pub and put it on an e-reader.
I wished to have the possibility to enlarge the fonts, to have confort (digital ink is less tiring for eyes) and to bring it everywhere.

If you’re interested, here’s how:

1. Write your lyrics on a word processor (libre office etc.) then save the file.
2. Use the export to e-pub format function to convert your file
3. Put it on your e-reader (you can read it on a phone, tabs and computer too)
