pickA very short and approachable primer for writing a novel. It covers all the basics: establishing a routine, choosing your POV, crafting plot and dialogue, using language appropriately, reading your drafts, and making edits. He also ends with a bit of advice for getting published.
My one gripe with this was his excessive use of examples that involved sex and/or violence. Is that all he could come up with??
“The process of writing a novel is like taking a journey by boat. You have to continually set yourself on course. If you get distracted or allow yourself to drift, you will never make it to the destination.”
Good advice, albeit not very helpful for writers with ADHD, in my opinion.

pickI enjoyed this craft book. It definitely helps dispel the mystery behind controlling theme or lessons characters must learn.
“In a fit of desire, he tore off her coat, and her scarf, and her hat, and her gloves, and her neckwarmer, and her zip-up, and her sweater, and her long-sleeve, and her turtleneck, and her snow pants, and her flannel-lined jeans, and her fleece-lined leggings, and her long underwear, and her wool socks and her other wool socks.”

Lots of Maisey Yates and Caitlin Crews books in Kindle Daily Deals today 🔥 🔥
These ladies are local to me 🙂
Tagging a random book because this one isn‘t on Litsy. I‘ve been reading romances lately thanks to about a million TikTok recommendations I‘ve come across, and I‘m about to start book two in this series. Witches, mages, demons, etc, very entertaining! Check TW from the author at the start of the book. The series (Emerald Lakes) is on Kindle Unlimited 😎
