college and get a degree. Recommended classes are: Journaling, Communications, and English. You should also love to read. Authors get most of their research from reading, so keep reading. It’s an essential skill for an author.

Equipment and Technology Authors use creativity, paper, pencils,

and computers as their everyday equipment The technology that most impacts their job would most likely be computers. Computers are why authors use to type up their creations. If writers didn’t use a computer, books wouldn’t be in print, newspapers would only exist in manuscript, and Google wouldn’t answer in text.
