• find inspiration: put your ideas to paper
  • line up your thoughts: the beginning, middle, and end
  • flesh out everyone's motivation
  • write your favorite scene first: your book won't be a masterpiece when you first read it through, and that's fine. think about it though: in an essay, you always write your introduction last. why would a book be any different?
  • don't stop: power through. a finished work of crap is better than a fourth of an artistically satisfying piece. i don't care if it's in fucking gobbledygook; you can translate it later.
  • proofread: make this manuscript your bitch
