The Authorpreneur Podcast  - Writing & Self Publishing Tips


BTS022, Ask Me Anything on Writing and Self-Editing

June 29, 2019

So, I looked at my podcast in the iTunes store the other day, not only did I realise that I have a few reviews, but I also noticed that this episode is the fiftieth episode of The Authorpreneur Podcast.


Holy, crap!


I can't believe I made it this far.


Let's just say that it's been a long and difficult road, and there were times that I didn't think that I would make it this far. In the spirit of celebrating this milestone, I'm going answer the top questions asked by my Blog Readers, Youtube Subscribers, Podcast Listeners, and questions asked through my Ask A Question form on my website.

 

Here are the Questions I answer in this episode:

Q1: Should I revise or edit as I write my first draft? What are your thoughts on this?

Q2: I’m about to start revising or editing my first draft but I don’t know where to start. Do you have any tips?

Q3: How many drafts did you do before you felt happy with your novel?

Q4: How long did you leave between the first draft phase and revisions?

Q5: I’m a chronic procrastinator. I have a great story idea which I’m excited about and I’m 23,556 words into my first draft but I keep putting it off because it’s getting difficult. I’ve noticed that other people are more motivated than me. I can’t figure out how they do it. Do you have any advice?
