About this listen
Welcome back to the second part of our "So You Want to Write a Novel" series! Last week, we covered the basics: genre, POV, and whether your idea could just be vibes (spoiler: no). This week, we're tackling the actual writing part, which turns out to be kind of important.
We discuss where (and where not) to start your novel , why your first draft is allowed to be garbage, and the importance of just getting words on the page. We also compare writing tools and get very serious about backups. (Seriously, stop reading this and go back up your manuscript right now.)
We also talk about research and how much is enough before you're just procrastinating, and why momentum matters.
And of course…Hot Goss. (Hot gos? Hotgos? Hawtgaws?)
Welcome to Bad Lit Friends. We're glad you're here, even if none of us know what we're doing.
Bad Lit Friends was created and is hosted by Meagan Thompson-Mann and Kirk Rafferty.
