“Writing is not something you learn with your head, but with your hands.”
For those who feel lost before the first sentence
The most reliable writing training method!

Why do we feel stuck and overwhelmed by the first sentence when we start writing? It's because we haven't yet mastered the art of writing a good sentence.
Author Kang Won-guk says, “Writing must be learned through writing.”
Rather than simply following theories or lectures, the fastest and most reliable way to learn writing is to practice writing yourself and get used to the rhythm of sentences with your fingertips.
He says the same principle applies to AI's ability to write. AI collects countless human-written sentences and imitates various sentence patterns to create text.
After all, even AI must go through a process similar to transcription to be able to write, so transcription is an extremely natural training method for humans.
By transcribing 100 sentences from world classics, from Franz Kafka's first sentence to Tolstoy's famous lines and Virginia Woolf's delicate descriptions, readers will make the rhythm and rhythm of those sentences their own.
Through this, you will realize that the path to good writing is a steady process of building good sentences.

If you want to write well, start by writing good sentences.

Author Kang Won-guk says that writing is not learned through books or lectures, but rather through the process of learning to write by imitating good sentences.
Rather than obsessing over the perfect first sentence, it's important to start, revise, and perfect it.
By conveying feelings and emotions through metaphors and descriptions, the writing will remain in the reader's mind for a long time, and a rich vocabulary will add depth to the writing.
Moreover, the power to unfold a story, that is, storytelling, is a weapon that makes writing shine, and good sentences are completed through constant refinement.
This book is organized into five topics: writing the first sentence, metaphors and descriptions, vocabulary, storytelling, and sentence polishing.


If you keep writing and erasing the first sentence of Chapter 1
Everyone gets stuck on the first sentence when they start writing, but what matters is not the perfect first sentence, but completing the writing to the end.
Just write whatever comes to mind and edit it later.
The first sentence is a desperate appeal to the reader and a signal of beginning, so it is important to write it first.

Chapter 2: Emotional writing is created through metaphors and descriptions.
He explains that writing should not simply convey information, but also convey feelings and emotions to leave a lasting impression on the reader.
This requires novel metaphors and detailed descriptions.
Metaphors make abstractions concrete, and descriptions stimulate the reader's five senses to create vivid scenes.

Chapter 3: Writing becomes easier when you build your vocabulary.
Writing is ultimately a battle of vocabulary, and a rich vocabulary broadens the range of expression.
Learning and using a variety of words gives depth and individuality to your writing.
It is emphasized that reading and writing good sentences is the most certain way to improve vocabulary.

Chapter 4: Storytelling is a Writing Weapon
Humans are instinctively drawn to stories, and storytelling can easily convey complex concepts and make dry information come alive, he explains.
All great works move the reader's heart with powerful storytelling.
Also, a good story must find universal meaning through small experiences.

Chapter 5: The more you polish a sentence, the better it gets.
A well-written piece is not something that is perfect from the start, but rather something that is completed through constant revision.
A draft is just a transfer of thoughts, and real writing begins with a revision.
As you refine and edit your writing, your sentences will become better and the quality of your writing will increase.

By transcribing and following along with the sentences of numerous authors in five chapters on topics necessary for writing, readers will naturally learn the essentials of writing and be able to create their own sentences.
