Writing fiction is not as difficult as it might seem, as long as you follow these eight simple rules:

1.Think Outside the Box
It is fiction after all. Take yourself through a time machine to the past in your elementary school and imagine a kid came to class with an iPhone. Imagine how awestruck the whole class will be even if the phone has no signal? Now imagine yourself as the teacher of that class writing about an iPhone. Point is, you need to have an imaginative mind and think out what others would not ordinarily think of. If you can, be futuristic! Write about flying cars or Nigeria having constant Electricity!!! It might sound impossible now, but so was an iPhone years ago.

2. Create three-dimensional characters
Say you’re writing about a brilliant Lawyer who is having an adulterous affair. This is a good start, but to avoid turning him into a cliché, you need to fill him out in three dimensions. In every paragraph, tell the reader exactly how high, wide, and long he is. For instance: “Jamie Wilder, a brilliant Lawyer who stood six feet one, with a size-thirty-four waist and a chest girth of forty inches, was having an adulterous affair.” Also mention that he drives a flashy sports car.
