I answered this on Reddit so I thought I’d share it here since this truly has helped me and I want to help other writers who have struggled to find a writing structure that works for them!!!

me: *opens document to write* brain: let’s rethink the entire plot instead

the writer’s dilemma: - want to write a novel - want to read 10 novels for inspiration - end up doing neither and scrolling through memes about writing instead

how to outline a story:

write a bullet point list of everything that happens

realize it doesn’t make sense

cry

start writing anyway

Feels weird to be finishing something.

Two more chapters and I am done. Around 30k more words till the finishline is behind me. Such a weird feeling.

Now that I posted the covers of the three manuscripts I hope to finish this year, now I want to talk a little bit about what these books are about :)

Soulbound: In this world, every human being receives a sign from the universe to help them find their way back to their soulmate. Genevieve Santana fell in love with a boy who wasn’t her soulmate and in the end she lost him. So after leaving her abusive household, she takes refuge with an old friend who helps her earn her freedom. So now she wants to start her life over with her new family by her side. But things change when she finds her true soulmate. The son of her new neighbors. Who is getting married to someone else.

Summer Blues: Celia Guzman and her best friend, Danny, receive an invitation to a wedding back in their hometown. Well, Danny received the invitation. Celia wasn’t even invited. But she was still going, to support best friend as well as Danny’s older brother who is a newly ordained pastor who is officiating the wedding. So Celia goes back to her hometown, being forced to interact with the same people who cast her aside all those years ago. With the support of her friends, she faces her family and former classmates wanting to get through the summer wedding without losing her mind.

Fuel and Fire: Lewis Bradshaw and Casey Wilworth led very complicated lives. Lewis was raised by his unstable single mother who held onto him too tight. Casey felt abandoned by her mother who spent all of her time working while her shitty boyfriend made her life a living hell every day. Lewis was in love with Casey but he never had the courage to tell her. But she never noticed. She had her own shit she was dealing with. But after a huge fight in both their houses, the two decided to leave town together, needing to escape the confines of their old lives. And in doing so, they find comfort in each other which complicates things…
