45 Minutes to Write a Novel
WHAT! You can write a novel in 45 minutes. No of course you can’t but let me explain what I mean or at least what I was told by Edward Docx when I went to his lecture at the Winchester Writers society.
He said and I have to agree with him, that regular writing is essential to finish your novel. Most of us have jobs and households to run so time to write is limited. I also know that doing half an hour every day is much more productive that several hours once a week. So, find a time of the day that suits you best and try to spend 45 minutes every day on your writing.
This is a perfect amount of time for me to write the next bit and then I run out of steam. Also, it is amazing how quickly your novel grows as even if you only write one page a day in 20 days, you’ll have written 20 pages.
It is best if you schedule a time to designate to your writing. If you’re a morning person get up early to use this quite time to write or find some other time of the day that suits you. Then you have to stop procrastinating and get writing. It isn’t easy and sometimes you can talk yourself out of it but stick to it. It’s worth it in the end.
