Writing a story is hard. That's something everyone agrees to. It's easy to make sentences, but difficult to tell a story. You want to write the perfect story? There is no such thing. But if you do want to write your story the best way possible, here are is a guide on how to work. "Writing a book is a horrible, exhausting struggle, like a long bout of some painful illness.

Everything else is just odd jobs." -Margaret Laurence

I'll show you how to improve your story with just a few tips and exercises. Writing a novel can be confusing, especially if you're new to it. Even if you're a pro at writing, it still helps to be refreshed. This is my way to help you. Hopefully it WILL help in your journey as a writer, and if you have questions, please ask me. I'll address topics such as: ~The five senses ~Believable characters ~Improving first drafts ~Plot twists ~Dialogue ~Descriptions ...And much more. Oh, and one more thing before you begin reading. I know there are a lot of chapters, and a ton of content, but don't overwhelm yourself! Try starting off with a couple topics you know you could improve on, work on those, and then read a couple more. If you read all of these chapters at once it may be a bit too much to take on! So take your writing journey as slow as you need, and work on it one step at a time.
