The Writing Plan…
I’m not an expert but to make my brain work I believe the writing plan will go as follows:
>>First Draft<<
I’m not even sure how many words a first draft should be… I’m already this many in and I feel like there’s a lot to write still, but also know I’ll be cutting down? We shall see. š
My Writing Progress
81% 64,566 / 80,000 words
15,434 words to go
Second Draft
the first draft will probably have a lot of just point form babble so we’ll need to fix that
Alpha Readers
I will force my friends and family to give me their thoughts.
Third Draft
Using feedback – does this all make sense? Do I need to sprinkle a gun in somewhere? Did I forget a character?
Fourth Draft
Line editing, Flow, am I happy with it?
Beta Readers
Allow for feedback from Beta Readers
Cover Design
Create the cover while people read
Fifth (& Final?) Draft
Is it done? When is it done?
