Writing a novel may seem like such a
simple thing to do -- sit down with a pad and pen or in front of a
computer keyboard and start creating. Yet it can be filled with
problems.
- What do you
want to write?
- How do you say
what you want to say?
- Are you saying
it in the best possible way?
- How can you
come up with fresh ideas?
- What should you
do with your manuscript once you've finished?
- How can you get
published?
- How do you get
people to read what you've written?
