This little book is not about how to be a perfect writer, or a perfect martial artist. Nor is it yet another 'How to Write' type instruction manual. Instead, it’s about transferring the life-lessons learned in one passion, into another. Using the strengths of one art to overcome the difficulties of another. Learning the mindsets that enable success in more than one aspect of life.Having trained for 20 years in martial arts, Aiki Flinthart noticed behaviour and thought patterns were applicable to her other love: writing. She went on to apply these, and to help, mentor, and teach many other authors.Every author-whether a famous veteran, a part-time hobbyist, or an eager new writer determined to build a career-will find ideas of value in this work. From thoughts on determination and strength, to respect and collaboration, to adaptability, proving yourself, fear, self-control, prioritising, and even to facing your inner darkness. From tips on where to start your journey if you’re a new writer, to how to push through times of uncertainty and worry. For the newer author, there are recommendations on where to start your journey and what skills you need to learn. For all authors there are helpful suggestions on how to enrich your writing abilities.Whatever you’re looking for in your writing career, this book will give you something profound to think about.Perhaps even ideas that will impact your life outside of writing.Review quote'Both a call to arms and a comfort, How to get a Blackbelt in Writing is a practical, easy-to-read guide for navigating the writer’s journey. Learn what it takes to get started - more importantly - keep going. From Aiki Flinthart: a woman who’s kicked arse as a martial artist and an author.'Geneve Flynn, editor, author and writers workshop facilitator.
