Have you ever wondered how to write a book? Or perhaps you've written a manuscript that's already been edited to death, yet still isn't good enough?

Writing your novel doesn't need to be a painful or lonely experience. Sit with me and let me teach you all I've learned about creative writing tips and tricks. You are already talented if you've written a book or are ready to write fiction, which means half the battle is already won. I have good news, writing skills can most assuredly be learned!

This guide is designed to answer the following questions:

  • What should I consider before writing?

  • How to write a novel which has heavy world-building elements?

  • How do I approach edits?

  • What sells a book to agents?

  • How can I make connections in the writing and publishing community?

  • Should I self-publish?

    This guide answers all these questions and more by giving a personal review of actual author pitfalls and how they were overcome as well as soul-searching questions that'll reveal your true writing goals.
