We thought we were busy before, but turns out writing a novel while also podasting about it adds a whole new level to 'busy'. 

This week we discuss where we are squeezing in our writing time and our very different strategies to time management, plus, one of us celebrates making it to the 1/3 the way through mark. 

This episode we revisit our introductions. Got to get that first line just right! We discuss some of the best and worst opening lines and try to decipher where ours may fit on that scale. 

Many pages have now been written, but the going is still pretty tough for us two first-time novelists. We take half an hour off from writing to chat about our chosen settings and time periods and commiserate over research woes. 

We're getting into the swing of things now, consistently (kind of) putting words down onto paper. This week we dissect why we have chosen our particular points of view and what that means for our style of writing and eventual novels. 

Two weeks into our novel writing journeys, we discuss our strategies when it comes to outlining the plots and share what our respective books main conflicts will be. 

They say the hardest part of writing is starting, and here we are! We're two amateurs right at the beginning of our journey to hopefully each writing a novel. Join us as we put pen to paper, or fingers to keys, for the beginning of our books.
