tips + advice very welcome!!
hey!! :) i have been writing since i was very young and it has always been one of my biggest passions. i have tried many different writing styles and have received much positive feedback on most things i have written and completed throughout my life. though my issue has always been settling down on ideas and finding/executing my own ideas fully. i end up switching styles, genres, not finishing pieces, etc. very often. after taking quite a large break i have been more than reading to dive back in. i recently started the “300 writing prompts” journal and it has been great for kickstarting my brain and getting me back into the writing flow. more recently i have been very set on one specific idea and have been continually building on it in my head. i would like to not only execute this book idea but i would like for it to become a book that matters. in my (possibly delusional) head i see this as what could finally be my big start. i would love to also create my own specific character. of course any character in anything i write is going to be entirely from my head (of course with some guidance) but i would like something wholly mine. a fully original character that can become sort of my “brand” or “logo”…
idk lemme know what everyone thinks and definitely drop any tips you have for writing/character building, copywriting? a character etc.

Starting to write a novel can be both exciting and daunting. First, it’s crucial to establish a consistent writing routine to maintain motivation and progress. Explore different genres to determine where your passion lies. For character development, consider creating detailed backstories and motivations that resonate with readers. Engaging characters are essential for keeping your audience invested. Many writers find it helpful to create character profiles that outline personality traits, goals, and challenges. Additionally, reading widely can inspire your own writing style and help you understand various narrative techniques. Online writing communities provide a platform for feedback, encouraging collaboration and growth. Don’t hesitate to share your drafts, as constructive criticism can refine your work significantly. Remember, the journey of writing is a process of iteration; embrace the revisions and enjoy the creative flow as you work towards completing your manuscript.
Do it life is short and I’m sure it will be amazing. I’ll definitely read it
