Are you struggling to write a book?  Are you unsure of where to start?  Are you spending too much time staring at a blank page, not knowing where to begin? 

I know the feeling!

Writing a book can seem daunting when all you have in front of you is a blank page. Particularly if, like me, you're a 'Pantser'.

A 'Pantser' is someone who writes by the seat of their pants (aka makes up the story as they go along), as opposed to a 'Plotter' (someone who meticulously plans everything that happens in their novel before they start).

Are you a Pantser? Or a Plotter? Let me know in the inline comments!

I really like to 'Pants' novels on Wattpad, because it means I can embrace the serial aspect of Wattpad and react to reader comments and feedback as I'm writing it. The problem with making something up as you're going along, though, is it can be very easy to write yourself into a corner, get side-tracked from the plot, and give yourself writer's block! 

With this in mind, even 'Pantsers' need to think about a few key things before starting their novels to prevent these pitfalls.

In this book I'm going to outline eight key things that will help you write your story - with a focus on people who like to make up the story as they go along.
