About this listen

This is the no-fluff, serious writer's guide to getting your novel started, edited, and finished.

The five-draft method is designed to help you reduce your chances of overediting, which can stall your writing process and cause you to either never deem your novel finished or ruin it in any number of ways, including inputting too many slow sections, taking out all the interesting details and doing too much "showing" versus "telling".

In this writer's self-help audiobook, you will learn how to write your first draft and revise your manuscript to the point where it's ready for self-publication or submission to agents and/or publishers.

The five-draft method

  • Draft 1: The Junk Draft
  • Draft 2: The Structuring Draft
  • Draft 3: The Rough Draft
  • Draft 4: The Analytical Draft
  • Draft 5: Final Draft

Plus; proofreading for publication.
