How to Write Your Fastest Story Ever

The knowledge that writing fast doesn’t mean writing bad, was one of the most important lessons I learned from NaNoWriMo. In fact, many famous novels and novellas were written in just a few weeks: Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s A Study in Scarlet, Matthew Lewis’s The Monk, H.

That is, that the creative and spiritual lives of individuals influence the outer world as much as the mythic world influences the individual." - Clarissa Pinkola Estés

This is so close to how I pictured the “Old Library” in my novel world. You can read a rough draft of the opening scene in my 𝕭𝖑𝖆𝖈𝖐 𝕲𝖗𝖆𝖒𝖒𝖆𝖗 highlights.
