Welcome to the first-ever bonus episode of the podcast. As you can probably guess by the title, this is my first-ever episode on Ask Me Anything on writing and story structure. In this episode, I will answer the top questions asked by my Blog Readers, YouTube subscribers, and podcast listeners through my Ask a Question form on my website.


Here is a list of the questions that I will answer in this episode:

  1. How many words do you need in a chapter?
  2. How long does it take to write a novel?
  3. How to know if you've done enough research to start writing?
  4. How do you flesh out a vague story idea?
  5. What should you do when a scene in your novel is too similar to a scene in a TV show, movie, or another book?
  6. What should you do when your story isn't working?
  7. If I was telling a story over three novellas, does each book need an inciting incident?
  8. How do you show the passing of time in fiction?
  9. Do you have a framework and things to think about when making an outline?


Without further ado, let's get on with the episode.
