How Can I Go About Writing My First Novel?

Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    Writing a novel can seem like quite a daunting task! A great way to start is simply by brainstorming. Write down every thought that comes to mind. Don't censor those that seem stupid! The point is to get all your thoughts on paper and to get your creative juices flowing. You might want to use the computer if you can type quickly or a notebook.This process can be a helpful warm-up exercise anytime you sit down to write. It can also take your plot in surprising directions.

    Once you have established a theme for your story through brainstorming, you can start to flesh it out. You can create a rough sketch or diagram of the plot of the story. Then, make an outline of what happens in each chapter.
    Once you have a plan for the book, you may find it much easier to fill in the details. Of course, there is no one science to writing a novel. Some authors like to form the plot as they go. The best method is the one that works for  you.
