TOO MANY BOOK IDEAS? How to Choose Your First Novel Idea and Finish a Draft

I think that all authors deal with having too many ideas, but it's especially true if you’re writing a book for the first time. You decide you’re going to go for it, you’re actually going to write a novel, and it’s like you give your brain full permission to go bonkers with the creativity! All these incredible ideas come flooding in and you get so excited and it’s truly a wonderful feeling--but it can also get you into trouble. So today I’m going to tell you exactly what I do when have too many book ideas so you can pick one and write that first draft FAST. Stuff I use as a full time writer/author (that you may have spotted in this video!) (affiliate links are afoot): WRITING/WORK STUFF Alphasmart Neo2. Highly highly recommend. https://amzn.to/3cStKui Adjustable laptop desk. I LOVE this thing. Typing with my arms at an angle has drastically reduced elbow/wrist pain. https://amzn.to/2OYh0tX Clever Fox planner. I’ve used a few planners and this is my fav. Lots of space for mind-mapping and brainstorming, daily to-do lists, space for goal setting. https://amzn.to/3vNmk3Z Best writing pens, hands down. I use them every time I revise a book. https://amzn.to/311nRoP Acer monitor. I kind of hate the word gamechanger but this really was that kind of purchase. https://amzn.to/3vH71Kh Brother laser printer. I won’t lie, this thing is a behemoth. But I’ve had it since 2017 and I think I’ve had maybe one paper jam? It works great, it’s super consistent, A++ for printing manuscripts. https://amzn.to/3tzIvZE Macbook Air. Doesn’t really need my recommendation. https://amzn.to/2OUCaJx COFFEE STUFF Ninja coffee maker. I freaking love this thing! It has a “speciality” setting that’ll make...not espresso, but pretty dang close. There’s a milk frother attached if you want to get fancy with your drink. https://amzn.to/31533Nu Cold brew pitcher. I have two of these on constant rotation in the fridge. Don’t judge me. https://amzn.to/3cSKVM9 Zulay milk frother. (Yes, I take my coffee seriously.) https://amzn.to/3r7DDJu VIDEO MAKING STUFF Canon G7X Mark iii camera. https://amzn.to/3r9BfCb Savage studio lights. I mostly use these for ‘talking head’ videos. https://amzn.to/3r7G6Un Ubeesize 10” ring light. That’s the little guy sitting on my desk. I mostly use it for vlogging. https://amzn.to/31hqpzD JJC mini tripod. https://amzn.to/3feXxjJ Rode clip mic. https://amzn.to/2OSaLb2 ______________ Check out my free Create Dynamic Characters course, a quick writing workshop that'll help you create a protagonist who transforms AND find an organic plot for your novel in just 20-30 minutes! https://michelleschustermancourses.th...
