Let’s do a reflective look at our week! Did you: 👀 Show up? 👀 Get clearer? 👀 Move forward, even a little? That’s how books are built. 📚 👉 What’s one thing you’re carrying into next week? Share it in the comments!

If you’ve restarted your book more than twice… It’s not a motivation problem. It’s a clarity problem. Think about it, you can have a heck of a lot of motivation, but if you don’t have the direction, how are you getting there? Many famous authors have a structure at the beginning to help guide them on their path. 💥Dan Brown: Employs detailed outlines that include research, character motivations, and specific plot points to create high-stakes, suspenseful narratives. 💥George R.R. Martin: Uses extensive planning to manage intricate storylines and world-building, which ensures his complex plots maintain direction (think of the books he has completed from this. It has come to my attention that he has fallen off of consistency since readers are still waiting for his new book. This shows us that everyone can have times where they lose their direction.). 👉 What part of your story keeps changing every time you restart? Share your answer in the comments. That’s the piece we lock in first and helps us understand the hole you have within your story. Book a time for us to chat, and let’s find a solution together.

Many writers accidentally make dialogue sound stiff or unnatural. Today we’re practicing natural conversation. 🔥Your Challenge Write a short conversation between two characters where: • one character wants something • the other character is hiding something But neither of them says it directly. Think of how real people talk. 🗣️ We often: • avoid the real topic • speak indirectly • say one thing but mean another Example: Person A: “Did you go to the meeting yesterday?” Person B: “I had a lot going on.” The tension sits between the lines. Rules 🔥 Write at least 10 lines of dialogue 🔥 Use minimal description 🔥 Let the tension show through conversation Bonus Challenge Add one small physical action that reveals what the character is feeling.

Not just your time. It’s asking for your honesty. Your attention. Your willingness to not run when it gets uncomfortable. Think about this for a moment. There’s something that our stories want from us more than time. This could be self-reflection, thinking as your ideal reader, understanding what is needed in the story, and many other things that play a role within a book. 📕 When I teach Story First, it helps you find your path within your book and it helps lighten the load further down the process. Now, I want you to ask yourself this question and then write your response in the comments below! 👇 👉 What is your story asking from you right now? Answer that… and you’ll know your next step.
