Novel writing made easy? Tips, hints and advice.

Novel writing made easy sounds like a misnomer doesn’t it. This is because at some point
when you are trying to write a novel you are going to have to sit down and actually write at
least 40,000 words (and that would be if you want to write a very short novel) which isn’t
actually hugely easy. The problem with novel writing is that few people realise just how
much planning, organisation, editing and simply re-writing goes in to a typical novel. They
start writing without a clue as to what they should really be doing in the book let alone
thinking about its marketability s a finished novel. So without further ado I present a quick
list of novel (pun intended) hints, tips and advice to help you in your initial planning.

Tip 1) Practice your writing. This is the best piece of advice I can give you. Write as much as
you can, work on your spelling, punctuation and grammar as nothing puts people off book
proposals more than poor writing. Practice your sentences and make them lively and
engaging.

Tip 2) Plan your novel. This is the most important advice if you are looking for novel writing
to be easy. Whether you are writing a science fiction fantasy novel or a romance novel, you
need to pin down your plot, AND your entire scenery before even writing a word. Starting
with the plot you need to work out and write down every step of your plot, every intricacy
and every single twist. This writing tip will make your actual writing a whole lot easier. With
more creative writing you then need to map out everything that goes on around the central
plot- are there alien races, sprawling mansions or an evil step sister? Map out all their
characteristics so you know how they will behave in any given situation.

Tip 3) Ok so everything is beginning to take shape but we aren’t quite at the stage where we
can write a novel yet. Step two however lets us begin writing as we need to test our
characters in their scenes. Try writing about your characters in a certain situation and get
the feel for how they would re-act and interact with each other in your books world. This
will let you adjust your characters to truly have a perfect match to you story.

Tip 4) Right ok our idea should be looking good by now so we can actually start writing our
book, or books if you’re feeling bold. If you really want to make writing a novel easy, then
you need to sit down every day and write it. I would start with a minimum of one hour every
day sat down writing. Get your creative writing juices flowing and get cracking – do not
under any circumstances leave your writing for more than one or two days or you will
struggle to get back to it.
This covers the basic steps of novel writing and it will help you on your first tentative steps
towards truly having novel writing made easy. I hope you enjoyed these creative writing
tips, advice and tricks. Good luck with your creative novel writing I hope it’s at least a little
easy for you. For a full guide to creative writing and to make novel writing very
