Күн бұрынHi friend and welcome to the channel!
Next week, my Shadowhurst novella hits the shelves making today the perfect time to talk about my main tips for writing one. A novella can be a tricky one to write, but if you keep these tips in mind, you'll be able to get through it with ease.
Thanks for watching!

❤ ABOUT ME ❤
I have spent most of my life waiting to meet a witch, vampire, or at least get haunted by a ghost. In between failed seances and many questionable outfit choices, I developed a keen eye for the extra-ordinary.
When not writing, I spend my free time reading and binge-watching television shows in my pajamas. Currently, I reside in Toronto, Canada with my husband who is not a creature of the night.
I am a Scorpio and a massive advocate of leggings for pants.

I plotted out my novel a few days ago...i spent the last 4 months reading mysteries, so i'm going to try writing one. i created 10 characters, but only 5 or 6 are vital. i figure it's gonna be 20 chapters, just about a novel range...my goal is to have a draft done by xmas, Ms. Sage 🙂

Congrats! That’s amazing to hear! Sounds like you are in great shape to start writing. It will be an amazing Christmas present to have that draft done 🥳

If done right, a novella can be deeper than a novel.

This was very interesting! I had never thought about some of the points you made. How does the editing process differ when writing a novelle?
@ANSageWrites 3 жыл бұрын
For me, the main difference is taking away instead of adding. It seems counterintuitive but a lot of cutting goes into editing a novella to keep it succinct and the pacing fast.

Thank you for this. It was informative and helpful. Is it possible for a first time novella writer to get an agent? Or would you “self publish” to begin with?x
@ANSageWrites 2 жыл бұрын
I believe most agents are looking for full novels though I could be wrong on this. I would double check the agent's requirements when submitting to make sure they are looking for novellas first.
