Hi ,

Writing a book is a complicated process and figuring out where to start can be confusing, especially for new authors.

Some writers start with character.

Some writers start with a theme.

(Filmmaker and painter David Lynch starts each creative project with a deep dive of transcendental meditation!)

In the latest episode of The Writing Coach, I describe the perfect way to begin developing a story and exactly where you should start.

Listen to the episode or read the transcript here.

Your pal in writing, 

Kevin T. Johns, writing coach
