I know that when you sit down and stare at that first blank page, writing a 50,000 word story seems quite difficult, but it's not really all that bad. All you need to do is break it up into manageable chunks. Including this sentence, I have just written 50 words.Â
How long do you think it would take you to write the above paragraph? Two minutes? 3 minutes if you put some thought into what you were writing? Let's say three minutes. At that rate you would write 1000 words in 1 hour. Â In theory then, if you wrote for 2 hours per day you could write 50,000 words in 25 days.Â
To write a full, commercially viable first draft of 80 thousand words it would take 40 days. Simple?
Maybe possible but not simple.Â
In order to write successfully every day you need to know what you will be writing about.Â
Otherwise you will spend that 2 hours staring at a blank screen.Â
That's where this Activity Book will help you.Â
It helps you to organise your story into sections, acts, chapters, scenes; breaking it up so that you never need to take on too much at any one time.Â
By the time you have completed this book, you will be ready to write. And when you sit down to write you will know;Â
- who your characters are,Â
- how your story will begin,Â
- how it will end,Â
- where the mid point is and the act breaksÂ
- the inciting events and the turning points.Â
Every day when you turn on your screen, you will already have a plan and will know what you will be writing about. Â Wow, look, I've written 291 words, that's a whole page of a paperback novel.Â
And Keep Writing.
