Hey Megan! My name is Tianna. I can't wait to read your book! I am working on writing a book right now and I was wondering if you have any advice for new writers?

I'm so glad to hear you're writing a book. It's a beautiful journey, and I'm happy to have you along for it. There is so much advice I would love to give and not enough time. I'll be doing weekly videos on my Youtube channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClk2...) which I think you may have already subscribed to, so be sure to check those out. I also have a few posts on my blog at MeganTennant.com/blog.

In the meantime, do you have anything in particular that you're struggling with? I would love to help you out, or even do a video on a particular topic you're interested in.

As for advice off the top of my head:
One thing that's helped me a lot along the way I knowing and accepting that in writing (and all artistic careers really) self-doubt is normal, and learning to power through it is the difference between a finished novel and an unfinished one. I can guarantee there will be times when you think your writing is terrible, and you want to put your novel down and never come back (I have these feelings at least once a day on a normal week), but you have to power through. Just know that in writing, doubt is a very normal part of the process, and don't ever let it get you down.

Another piece of advice I found very helpful when starting out, is spend the time to outline everything. I know some people are pansers (I think that's spelled correctly), and when I started out I thought I was among them, but honestly, if I didn't stop and outline out my novel, Aletheia would be years from being complete. Outlining was the best decision I ever made when starting out. It saved me so much time, and I don't know what Aletheia would be without it. I hope to put a video up in the next few weeks on outline tips, so keep your eye out for that.

I will see if I can think up some more good tips, and send them your way. In the meantime, if you think of any topics you want to learn more about or have any struggle you're currently facing, don't hesitate to let me know. I would love to cover the topic, whether directly with you or in a full video. Don't hesitate to comment here, or Tweet at me, or send me an ask on my Tumblr (meganitennant.tumblr.com). I would love to help out. Writing a book is a beautiful and difficult journey, and I believe it's important for writers to share advice and support one another along the way.
