Writer,
Writing a book is a dream for many, but for too many aspiring authors, the process of writing becomes a daunting and joyless task. You might sit down to write and feel like it’s a chore, thinking, “Oh, I can’t believe I have to write,” instead of feeling the excitement of, “Yay, I get to write!” If this resonates with you, it’s time to make a change.
I’m Ana, the founder of The Novelist Studio, and I’ve been where you are. With a creative writing degree and several published books, I understand the struggles and frustrations that come with writing. For years, I grappled with an inefficient writing process that made writing feel more like an obligation than a passion. But through trial and error, I discovered a method that transformed my approach to writing, turning it into a delightful and fulfilling experience.
The Problem: An Inefficient Writing Process
Most writers, myself included, are never taught an efficient writing process. We often dive into our projects with enthusiasm, only to hit a wall of disorganization and overwhelm. This inefficiency can suck the joy out of writing, leaving us feeling frustrated and discouraged. The key to overcoming this is finding a structured process that works for you—a method that allows you to write effectively and enjoyably.
The Solution: A Joyful and Efficient Writing Process
Imagine a writing process that feels like playing with Legos—methodical, structured, and fun. This is what I aim to teach through The Novelist Studio’s Boot Camp. Our method is designed to help you move from the initial idea to a finished draft in a way that’s both efficient and enjoyable.
How Long Should It Take to Write a Book?
One of the most common questions I hear is, “How long should it take to write a 50,000-word manuscript?” Most books are between 50,000 and 60,000 words, and the answer might surprise you. With the right process, it should take you just 35 days to complete a draft of a 50,000-word book. Yes, you read that right—35 days.
Introducing The Novelist Studio’s Boot Camp
To help you achieve this, I’m excited to invite you to The Novelist Studio’s Boot Camp, starting on August 5th. This 11-day intensive is packed with interactive sessions where I’ll guide you through my efficient writing process.
