The hardest part of writing a novel is starting, so even when you don't want to write just push through and it will soon get easier.
Tips
Tips
- If you're experiencing writer's block write out a few pages of your favorite book.
- Sit down and write. If you have a spark don't wait for the fire, make it yourself.
- It's always easy to take away some of your story than it is to try and write more. When you write your first draft put in everything you can think of, then go back through and take it out later.
- If you give your book to people to edit, don't be discouraged if they don't like it or they have a lot of corrections. Not liking it means that your book is controversial which will make it more interesting to read and a lot of corrections just means it's getting better.
- When you have an idea for a novel, no matter how small or insignificant it might be, write it down! The biggest lie you can tell yourself is that you will remember what it was.
