IF YOU CAN TALK, YOU CAN WRITE

 

When we talk, we tell stories and present ideas--rarely with much anxiety; without having to think of what to say.

Talk is as easy  as that  and natural.

But how many people realize that writing  was born out of man’s desire to imitate speech.

Sam Adeyemi of Nigeria used to say “ God made the apple, but man made the apple juice. In the same reasoning , I used to tell my wring class that God made  speech , but man made writing. Had man not fallen in the Garden of Eden, may be there should have been to need to learn how to write

The book of Genesis for instance was written by Moses , yet God is the author!

Man was wired to speak. But he has to be really educated to write. Tell a child to narrate and incident that he is a witness to , and viammm he goes!.  Ask the same child to write… there the trouble begins. The reason for this is simple: God wired us to speak…. Naturally.

Good enough , we can WRITE by mealy imitating speech. This is what I mean: any time you have a chapter to write, simply SAY the chapter out on tape… then imitate what you have said by simply coping it out! In that way , you have made your writing easy.

How do you think people like Bishop Oyedepo WROTE over 70 books? In many cases he simple preached and an editor went to work!

 Try the same : next time you talk or preach, record what  you said and  copy it out on paper… and you would have seen how close you are to writing the next chapter of your book.

If you can talk, you can WRITE!... trust me
