Review your first draft chapter

Look for how to improve the story-craft level and structure, as well as the clarity and impact of the written text itself. Also, when you have story-craft ideas from your text here, link them elsewhere in WIN, like to another character, an event, place, another chapter. This linking is easy to do. Thus, you stay organized by linking.

Summary: build writing habit


This means the above. Have you noticed how almost every well-published writer always writes the same book, content only being different? They have unconsciously and consciously developed a thorough writing-formula which they refine and use over and over again to produce their best-sellers. Here TWI teaches you the formula:

Writer = Wonderful story idea = Computer = Organizing software = Writer's interface = Structure and craft knowledge = Craft learning = Unique story plan = Written text = Revised story plan = Revised text = Completed story = Novel or play or memoir = Publishing and distribution = Writer with a following = Affirmation and money = Love of writing!
