"I have no pages. I haven't published a book since 2021. I haven't published a novel since 2020. I've usually been able to crank out books at a swifter pace than that."
"This time, I wanted to know exactly where I was headed. My final outline ran well over 40 pages and 23,000 words, with full character sketches and a lengthy explainer of the world our story is set in."
Different writing processes exist among authors, with some preferring multiple monitors while others rely on simpler methods. One writer shares their experience of changing their approach for a new novel, creating a detailed outline for the first time. Despite the extensive planning, they have not produced any pages since completing the outline. This reflects the challenges and personal evolution in the writing journey, emphasizing that no two writers share the same process.
