Diary of a Novella Entry 4
join me as I write a novella in January
Hello Substackers!
Welcome to the fourth edition of 'Diary of a Novella,' where I share why I’m behind with my January word count, along with the importance of resilience and recalibrating writing goals.
I also chat about how writing blurbs early in the writing process can help solidify story direction and structure, and give some examples from my own work.
The episode concludes with a renewed commitment to daily writing and practical suggestions for achieving writing goals even when facing physical limitations.
