Quick “Maze” Writing Technique

Mazes are fun simple puzzles. You have to draw a line from the start of the maze to its end. There will be lots of pathways from the start. But all of these pathways will lead to a dead end – except one.

With trial and error, anyone can solve a maze puzzle. It doesn’t matter how complex or big the maze is. But do you know the quickest way to solve the maze puzzles?

Begin from the finish line and work your way towards the starting point!

Go ahead and try it out on your own. Draw the line from the “end gift” to the “start”. You will rarely get stuck. And you will solve the puzzle very very quickly!

To write quickly and effortlessly, apply the same maze technique.

Begin With The End!

Once you know how you want to end your blog post, the rest becomes easy.

  • You won’t be writing and deleting and writing again all the time.
  • You will have a better flow.
  • Words will come quickly.
  • You will write your blog posts a lot quicker than others who start without knowing how they will end their posts.

“The secrets of telling a story well are three:
1. How to end. 2. Where to begin. 3. What to leave out.”
- Roy H. Williams

    According to what I have read, the author of the Harry Potter series did exactly that. She wrote the ending of the series before she wrote the first book!

    Wow – didn’t know that Rod.

    I haven’t read the Harry Potter books. But seems like I should read them just to try and de-construct why they are such a big hit.

    Interesting, I always have a hard time stopping when I’m writing. Especially something very long; I just want to keep going.
