Transcript

Last lesson, what do I do next, you're ready to write and ready to go. This last lesson is just about the dot points. really straightforward recap process. Using the process above. to plan out a rough list of scenes should take no more than one to two hours. The next part is filling in the detail and actually sitting down to write.

That's the tough part. Make sure you're saying that correctly laid out in the right order. Again, see the seven key elements in the end of this, this lesson. Start working on the scenes that excite you the most. Don't worry about writing in chronological order. Your scenes are all mapped out after all.

This will make you more excited to write and it will show you which scenes might not be 100% necessary to your story. For example, the one you leave until last. Next, consider which parts of the day you are most effective. Do you write better in the morning or the evening? Better to have one productive air in the morning versus three unproductive hours at night? Right in short bursts using the sprint method, right for 20 minutes, take a two to five minute break.

Instead of thinking, oh my god, I have an hour I need to write as much as possible. split your daily work into 20 minute blocks and watch your speed increase. knowing exactly what scene you'll be working on, and what's going to happen next will keep you on track. Now, this is your key elements page. You can see it It's quite easy to follow story beginning phase one, the preparation phase. This is where you're not preparing your story.

But you're preparing the characters, you're introducing the characters, you're introducing the setting. you're introducing the beginnings of the story, who these people are and what they do and where they live. This is largely what you've been doing. In chapter one of both of the examples we've been working through plus the unwritten example. then something happens. It's a game changer.

This could be anything. It's to do with your story. This brings in phase two, the reactive phrase, how does your protagonist react to whatever changed after the preparation phase, somebody became ill somebody died, somebody met. Somebody, somebody was involved in an accident. Somebody saw a ghost. What's the reactive phase?

This is the next phase of your book. Then there's another game changer. In the reactive phase, somebody has reacted to something. How do they handle it? How do they manage it? Do they run away?

Or do they go on to face? What's coming? This is phase three, the proactive phase. How do they deal with it? Do they get on with it? Boy mates go this boy pump to question does girl except we'll go like step does all work out.

Well? Do they all live happily ever after? Remember, we're writing a romance here. Then you have the game change and number three, something changes. Absolutely. That means, oh, they're going to be together after all.

That's phase four, the conclusion phase. You don't just write and they all live happily ever after the end. What you do is move on through the conclusion phase. They realize the protagonists realize that they meant to be together. That's the way it's going to be. Whatever the conflict and tension was in earlier chapters, it's all solved the resolutions there.

And the conclusion phase is well underway, and then you move towards the story ending. Now, that's all I can go into in this series of lessons. Thank you for listening. I hope you've enjoyed the course. If you have, please leave positive reviews on the side. If you feel like messaging me about some ideas or you want further information, please feel free to do so.

I'll be happy to exchange messages with you
