How to painlessly write a Novel (for Kindle)
I found this book via the youtube video by Andrew Heath about writing a short story in an hour. It seems pretty straightforward and useful in its step by step process and is only $2.99 for the kindle book.

Hmmm... I would have said that if it's causing you physical pain then you're doing it wrong. I suspect that if it's not causing you mental pain then you're also doing it wrong. But maybe that's just me.

You may have a point though I think he meant that it should help you to lessen the struggle to come up with a complete storyline After all if you have a well structured idea of where you are going and why in your story you will be less likely to run into the brick wall of wondering, "what happens next?" I'm working on transcribing the notes from his video about short stories so I can have a copy with me without having to refer to the video all the time.

No pain, no gain.
If you're not hurting mentally you're doing it wrong; a writer should stretch themselves with every piece they write. |
