    About this series

    Writing and finishing a novel can feel overwhelming.

    If you're like most writers, you need to fit writing around other responsibilities and goals.

    Maybe you're working at a separate job or profession, raising a family, or pursuing a degree (or all of the above).

    But there's good news.

    No matter what else is happening in your life, you can write a novel in a year.

    The One-Year Novelist, narrated by the author, walks you through the steps week-by-week, taking you from idea to finished draft.

    It also includes ways to strengthen your commitment so you'll be sure to finish in a year.

    This book is for you if:

    • You've been meaning to write a novel for a while but aren't sure how to find the time
    • You started novels before but never quite made it to the finish line
    • You finished a novel before but felt like it took too long

    This plan will work whether you can follow the age-old advice of writing at the same time every week or day or whether you need more flexibility because you never have a regular schedule.
