How to write a book
"I can cross this off of my list but I'll be cranking out more next year November."
How I did it: I had a general idea of a story and took it one day at a time. I didn't know where it would go either. I had no concrete outline that held me to the story so that freed me to go where the characters took me.
Lessons & tips:
- Keep thinking about where you'd like the characters to go.
- Don't think about how it will end. Think about the beginning and where it will go.
- Yeah, that's it.
