My Book

Okay, I have decided I'm going to write a book. Seriously. I'm going to make time to sit down and write. Most people's reactions have been, "Well, that's awesome! I mean, if you have enough time to do something like that, go for it." The truth is, you have to make time for what you care about. Everyone knows this if they think about it. We make time to hang out with those we care about. We all know that if we decided to work out and stay fit, we take 30 minutes out of our day to do so. I'm going to spend at least 3 hours a week writing. I'm going to keep it fun, so it's not like another responsibility or a job, but I'm going to think of it as free time. I'll spend it exercising my imagination.

The reason I'm telling you guys this is because I'm going to keep you all updated on my journey to becoming a novelist. It's going to be a fiction novel and so far I have an outline. For the sake of keeping my ideas private, I'm not going to reveal the gist of the story, but I am going to keep you posted on how far I've gotten, character development, struggles I have to overcome, etc. Please stick with me on this! I need support to keep going. I know it's going to be hard... I've tried before but I've never had an idea this good and I've never been this resolved. I believe I have reached a point when my writing skills are good enough and they will only improve on this journey. Stick with me! Free copies to all that read and comment when I get published.

I will reach this goal, readers. Just wait and read.

Book progress to date:
  • outline started
  • main characters decided upon
  • plot twist decided
Next step:
  • complete chapter by chapter outline
  • begin writing
  • develop main character
  • develop setting
More to come soon! Don't worry, I will still post other interesting stuff too:)
