Whether you’ve just decided it’s finally time to write that book you’ve been thinking about on your own or you’ve been bit by the NaNoWriMo bug, starting a novel can be intimidating!

1. Outlining (it doesn't have to be detailed)
2. Beat Sheets!
3. Mood boards
4. Character Sheets
5. Creating a list of names
6. World Building

7. Minimizing real world distractions
