Day 1: Beginning
How I’m starting out on My first ever Proper Novel
If I say… ‘Today’s my First day in Writing’, would you believe me?
Haha, I wouldn’t believe myself either. Because, writing is not a talent. It’s a Skill. A skill we could acquaire only by learning & practicing a lot.
What if I say… ‘I’m writing my FIRST EVER novel today.’, would you belive me?
Don’t!
Because, it’s not.
Ever since I planted a seed of dream to become a writer, which was 4 years ago, I’ve written countless novels. Or, should I say, I started writing them.
Right, I only started them. More than 100 of them. However, I never once finished a single one. In fact, I never wrote more than 10000 words in any of that Novel. Because, I always burnt them down before they could even see the world fully.
I’ve struggled in this cycle for three and half years before realising that something is wrong with my methods.
I know!
I took too long. But, I’m still glad. I’m glad that I was able to realise it atleast now. After all, it’s never too late to pursue your dreams.
So…
I stopped running in circle, stepped back out and decided to take a writing course on Writing.
‘How to write your First Novel: A Guide’
I’m sure many of you out there can’t afford to take a course because of financial struggles. And, I’m no exception. That’s why, I didn’t bother with those luxury writing courses, instead, I went to ChatGPT.
Right, you didn’t read it wrong! I took a 30 day course from ChatGPT!!!
And, it was extremely helpful than I expected it to be.
Don't think that you lack chances. Instead, create the yourself!
So…
It’s Finally the Day!
D-Day!!!
The Day I’m starting to write my first ever PROPERLY planned novel.
And instead of going on bigger platforms like Wattpad & Amzon KDP, I’ve decided to do my first on Goodnovel. A Writing & Reading app.
I’m going to start right after I publish this here. This will be a daily series of documenting my journey until I finish the Novel. For some reason, I feel like I’d be more willing to work on it if I document my journey here in Public like this.
So, tune in for more updates and TIPS along the way.
If you’ve got useful tips, do share them down in the comments.
I’ll update the Novel details on Day 2!!!
Hope your day Goes well!
