    Where do I start?

    I used to have the same issue, which is why I switched to writing on a notebook! it's less intimidating than writing digitally in my opinion Like some others have said, write down any ideas you have down even if they're "bad" or not organized. Just getting something down can help kickstart...

    how to actually write books

    Like I have a general idea of how the arcs or big scenes move from point A to point B, but actually writing down the details of what happens becomes challenging. This definitely stems from my world build still not being finalized, but I'm doing this to develop my world build. it's also an...

    how to actually write books

    thank you!! and yes I really do need to read more, but getting books of my taste is a bit tricky (and expensive) here also I really struggle with outlining/plotting, especially breaking arcs down into smaller scenes. that's exactly what I'm stuck with right now actually. other than figuring out...

    hello!

    hi! I'm Finn, and my special interest is story making!! (soo specific) I've been working on a huge story since around 2019, and I've recently started taking it more seriously so I can bring it to life by turning them into books (and eventually into movies or such), but I honestly lack a lot of...
