If you've been dreaming about writing your novel but don't know where to start, or if you've

already started writing but keep getting stuck in the same cycle of overthinking, researching,

and rewriting, then I have something just for you. I'm hosting a live three-day boot camp from

January 19th through the 21st, and if you give me just 30 minutes a day for three days,

you'll walk away with a realistic finish date, clarity on your story's deeper purpose, and a logline that proves your idea works.

It's only $27 and hundreds of writers have already signed up.

Head over to savannahgilbo.com forward slash boot camp to learn more and save your spot.

Hope to see you there.

So I'm now fast drafting my novel.

I've just finished with Act 1 and feeling so much more confident with the map and path ahead that I have.

Anytime I run into an issue, I just come back to my key scenes, my theme. I solve it from the ground up. And it's honestly like having Savannah right there. I'm like, what would Savannah tell me? And it's so far worked

every time. I'm still struggling to embrace the mess of the discovery draft as a recovering

perfectionist. But after connecting with other writers, I feel much better

about the mess. And I'm having so much fun writing now. Welcome to the Fiction Writing Made Easy

Podcast. My name is Savannah Gilbo, and I'm here to help you write a story that works. I want to prove to you that

writing a novel doesn't have to be overwhelming. So each week, I'll bring you a brand new episode

with simple, actionable, and step-by-step strategies that you can implement in your writing right

away. So whether you're brand new to writing or more of a seasoned author looking to improve your

craft, this podcast is for you.
