One of these days, I'm going to sit down and write that novel....
Everyone thinks about doing it, yet most people who do start a novel end
up stalling after a few chapters. Where do these would-be novelists go
wrong? Are the characters dull and cliched? Did the story arc collapse?
Did they succumb to a dreaded bout of "writer's block"? Or maybe it was
all just taking too long?
These problems used to stop writers in their tracks, but nothing will
get in your way after reading Write Your Novel in a Month. Author and
instructor Jeff Gerke has created the perfect tool to show you how
to prepare yourself to write your first draft in as little as 30 days.
With Jeff's help, you will learn how to organize your ideas, create
dynamic stories, develop believable characters, and flesh out the idea
narrative for your novel--and not just for the rapid-fire first draft.
Jeff walks you through the entire process, from initial idea to the
important revision stage, and even explains what to do with your novel
once you've finished.
Whether you are participating in National Novel Writing Month or you're
simply hoping to complete a draft over winter break or your vacation,
this book covers the entire scope of writing a novel and lays out
exactly what you need to know to get it done fast and right.
