Summary

This episode is a recording of a LIVE masterclass I just did, and I wanted to give you an exclusive audio peek into what it was all about. Enjoy this audio, but hurry, it's only live for 48 hours!

In this audio, you'll hear what’s *actually* necessary to brainstorm, outline, and write a novel—even if you've never written a novel before.

Specifically, you will learn things like:

How your story's genre can provide the framework for your entire story (and how one writer used this framework to finish her draft in 90 days)
A small but mighty mindset shift that will transform the way you look at writing a novel—spoiler alert: writer’s block will never stop you again.
How creating a well-structured (yet flexible!) outline can help you make twice the progress in half the time (even if outlines have never quite worked for you before)
The secret to following through and finishing your draft—no cabin in the woods, fancy degree, or magic wand necessary!
How the link between your protagonist and antagonist that can make or break your story—and how this link is the secret to crafting a cohesive story

My Notes to Novel course is officially OPEN for enrollment until October 12th at midnight PT! Click here to learn more and to join me for this LIVE 8-week experience!
