Novel Prep Practice


Young writers need to start somewhere. Whether it is for a novel or a report or a research paper. Start with a Simple Sentence. Condense the idea into one sentence. What are you going to write about? (once sentence: go!)

Main Outline refers to novel writing. Who is the main character? What is their backstory? In what world, time, location does the story take place?  What is the biug problem/challenge/quest that the main character has to face? What trigger's them into action for this quest to solve the problem? What is the climax? What are all the loose ends you will need to tie up after? How should the story tentatively end?

All of this can change as you write! But this preparation helps get you started.
