Write in Another Language in 10 Easy Steps

By Helena Halme

Write in Another Language in 10 Easy Steps
Coming soon!

Why do I write in another language?

If I had a penny, as the saying goes, for every time this question has been put to me, I’d be a rich woman indeed.

Of course, there are reasons, something which I’ve been writing about for a while now, ever since I published The English Heart in 2012. This novel is based on the story of how I met my Englishman and ended up moving to Britain. When later, much later, I started my writing career, I decided to write in English even though this is my third language after Finnish and Swedish.

I believe that using different languages enriches your life and through that your writing.

In Write in Another Language in 10 Easy Steps, I share with you a few practical tips I use to make it easier to write in another language. These are some of the areas that this book covers:

  • How to strengthen your language skills
  • How to ensure your text is free from errors
  • How to use software and other online tools
  • How to take advantage of your ‘foreigness’
  • How to avoid your inner critic and let your words flow
  • How other writers use a second language for inspiration

Write in Another Language in 10 Easy Steps will be out in March 2019.
