Hi writers!

NaNoWriMo is upon us, so gear up!

To get you ready, learn how to set up your Scrivener Platform to help you focus and organize your manuscript by reading my new article called 4 tips to help prepare for NaNoWriMo with Scrivener.

Also, if you haven’t read The Story Grid by Shawn Coyne, I highly recommend it. If you haven’t, or if you have and need a refresher on the 5 Commandments of scenes that work, here’s my article called 6 Elements of a Strong Story.

Once you’ve mastered the 5 Commandments and set up Scrivener, learn to track your 5 commandments using the tools of Scrivener by reading my article Using Scrivener to Track Story Grid 5 Commandments.

Using Scrivener and Story Grid to plan and self-edit your story will set you on a path to success.

Happy Writing!!
