Here are some tips from author Dan Drown on writing:
"Research to create images in your mind. These will lay the groundwork for characters and scenes later. The internet has exceptional tools for finding and organizing images to inspire you. Google Street View will take you all over the world, and then can take you beyond the “street view”—now they have galleries for everything: museums, arenas, natural wonders, and world landmarks."
"Treat location as you would treat a character. Allow it to convey mood and let it reveal more of itself over time. By selecting locations that excite you, you can transform relatively mundane scenes into more compelling ones. Your enthusiasm will come through in your writing, and your characters will view and interact with your locales in a more engaged way."
"When developing characters, try starting with your villain. The villain’s motivations will create the crisis for your hero. While Brown recommends introducing a villain with a bang—sending your reader a clear message that this character is malicious— he also urges you to spend time crafting a thoughtful character. In particular, every villain needs to have his own morality. If a villain spends part of the novel killing people, you need to give him or her believable reasons for doing so."

Dan Brown creator of the iconic Harvard Symbolist professor, Robert Langdon says “Robert Langdon is always talking in my head. We have a very close relationship.” In an interview with CBS This Morning, Dan Brown explained his thoughts on what makes Robert Langdon a popular protagonist. “I wanted to create a character where the reader feels like I could be that person. Most heroes in thrillers use guns and martial arts to get out of a tough situation. However, most of us don’t have guns or weapons, but they do have intellect. Robert uses his intellect to get out of tough situations. Readers think I may have been able to figure that out!”
Dan Brown’s creative process starts with deciding on two things: Location and The Big Idea. Then he starts researching, listing the location and looks for inspiration. By the time he is ready to write he has plenty of information and knowledge to keep him moving forward.
