Trust your readers! They’ll get it! Cut half of your exposition out of your novel and I’ll bet they understand what’s going on! #amwriting #writingtips
Never underestimate the power of your own mind to come up with good stories! #amwriting #writingtips
Your agent and publisher is going to want to see a synopsis for your novel - go ahead and write it now! Write a one page and three page synopsis, that way both are ready. #Writingtips #amwriting

Want to know the secret to a productive writing day? Get enough sleep the night before! Word output on days you’re tired is usually half that of when you’re rested. #writingtips #amwriting
Choose your genre well! In screenplays, the most successful ones are those that combine two genres, but that rarely works in novels. Genre determines theme, word count, pitch, and whether your novel succeeds or not! #writingtips #amwriting
Will a publisher reject your novel for too few words? The surprising answer - yes! Your book will not sell if it’s got much less pages than the books next to it on the shelves! #amwriting #writingtips
50,000 words is the absolute lowest you can go in your novels, and 110,000 is as HIGH as you can go without being rejected! Aim for 85,000 as your median word count! #amwriting #writingtips
At some point, you’re going to have to research SOMETHING for your novel! Make sure you’re checking facts and not basing your book upon urban myth! #Writingtips #amwriting
Essential tip - once you’ve made your novel template in Scrivener, now go through and add a one sentence synopsis to every scene! This is your book’s road map #writingtips #amwriting
