Episode 76: The 5 decisions you need to make BEFORE you start writing your mystery

  • Summary

  • So you want to write that mystery?

    Awesome! I love when people own their creative dreams. But it’s not as simple as just sitting down and waiting for the muse to strike with her fairy wand full of creativity.

    Instead, we’ve gotta do some things to set ourselves up for success.

    I’ve been writing mysteries for the past two decades, and one thing I learned is the importance of understanding exactly what kind of book you’re writing BEFORE you get started.

    On today’s episode of the Get Writing Podcast, I’m talking about the major decisions you need to make before you start writing your mystery.

    You might have an idea for a mystery. Or you just know you want to write one and that’s enough to get you started. And this episode is going to help you make the big decisions that will get you writing your masterpiece.

    This episode will help you:

    • Set yourself up for success before you write a word

    • Nail down exactly what kind of story you want to write, so you can understand reader expectations

    • Get clear on where and when your book should take place

    • Understand who your characters are and which one should be telling the story

    And so much more.

    If you want to get clear about what you’re writing so you can sit at your desk with confidence, you don’t want to miss this episode.

    And I’ve got a FREE guide to go along with this episode that walks you through each of the decisions - grab it below.
