A few years ago, JPC Allen Writes had a theme for the entire year, “The Journey of a Book”. For 2026, I’m doing a variation of that on how to write a novel. I’m working on my fourth novel and I’ve discovered it takes me about a year from when I write the first words until I hand it off to my editor. So I will cover the basic and not-so-basic concepts involved in novel writing. I also want to ask readers what novel writing tips do you want? Articles on pacing? Or creating believable character flaws? What about how to find settings that advance the plot? Please let me know it the comments what would help you to finish a novel this year.
