WELCOME EVERYONE

First of all, welcome and thank you for visiting my blog. I have been writing for a few years now and thought I would share with you what I do each day and some of the things I learn along the way to becoming a published author.

I am looking forward to the day when I can walk into a book shop and see my name on the cover of the book I have spent many hours pouring my heart and soul into writing.

Three quarters of the way through writing the book I'm currently working on, I realised the reason I was having so much trouble writing it was because I didn't have a strong enough plot worked out before I started. The internal conflict I started with began to bottom out towards the middle, there was no good reason why the hero and heroine couldn't just get a room and go for it, so I introduced external conflict, which I think in the end added a more interesting story line.

I have learnt for future books to have a detailed outline before I start. Having learnt that lesson (better late than never) I have written up what I call Order Of Events which is a list of each main event that takes place in each chapter. This way I can follow the conflict to see that it is viable right to the end and also that the main plot stays interesting.

I hope you will follow along in my journey to becoming published. I love writing and can't imagine doing anything else.

Thanks again
Angela
