Steven Lost The Story Forge

Hi all, and thanks to Steven for setting up the story forge, I love the name! Although my phone did just try and correct it to the story fridge; that’s a whole other topic! I’ve self- published one ya fantasy story so far and it’s a bit of a beast at 108,000 words. However I feel I’ve learnt from the process and am looking forward to sending out my second novel to agents and starting the whole process again.

Hi Fiona!

Welcome and thanks for joining! Yes the first novel is such a learning experience. I am going through the same pains myself. The key is to keep writing, Build a personal catalog and make it work for you. Keep that snowball rolling and before you know it, you will be a full time author.

Have you checked out 20to50k on Facebook? A very good resource
