write a book

I am now getting back to work on my book, it has been about 2 months now, and after reading over my work I realize that the first paragraph in chapter one would actually make a good prologue and that my secound draft of the first chapter need to be redone.

And since Im already doing an entry I would like to give a tip that could help whoever is reading this.

If you ever get writers block stop writing for a week or two, then read over it and you will notice things that may need to be changed, shortened, lengthened, or even redone, and you will also have more Ideas to go on into your story.

Im on my 2nd draft of my first chapter now, trying to make it longer and sound better. With that Im having trouble with some of the dialogue, since I have to change some and add a new character that plays a semi-important role in the story. So far the second draft is going well but I fear I’ll have to do a third draft to make a little more changes.

Im still on my 2nd chapter but im almost done. after that im going to revisit my first chapter since there is so much i still have to add or fix up. Then when im done with that im going to type it up on the computer, then get to work on the third chapter.

Do you think this is a good plan?

Im now on my second chapter, but my first chapter seems too short so I am trying to add more details. Yet, I fear that too much detail will lose the interest of my future readers.

Any TIPS?

I just started writing a book, but I’m afraid i’ll give up writing it, like the others I have tried to write(I tend to procrastinate…a little). The type of book I am trying to write is a romance/mystery/horror.
