Current Novel Project

I'd rather not discuss the story of the novel I'm currently writing, since I'm hoping to get it published (PRAY!) and don't want to spoil anything. But it's a story I've been developing for a few years now. I finally outlined it a couple of months back and am now writing it out!

I have high hopes for this story. I finished another novel last March, but I think this one is a lot better.

I'm gonna make this my NaNoWriMo project this year. Hopefully I'll finish the first draft then!

If you're interested, here's some pictures of my work thus far.

The outline for a new novel I'm currently working on! :D Do you guys outline or do you just jump into action? #writersofinstagram #writing

*sigh* I'm at a really slow point in my novel... But it's important, so... #writersofinstagram #writing

My main character is autistic and it really shows in this scene. "I love you but OMG DONT TOUCH ME." #autism #asd #writing #writersofinstagram

I started a scene from the point of view of one character before I realized that it would be better to use a different character. So I switched, but the dialogue and the action is the same for both versions, so it's cool to see them side by side. :3 #writersofinstagram #writing #notebook

All the pages of my current novel thus far. I typed up the beginning, though I'm handwriting everything right now. This will probably change when NaNoWriMo arrives and I need to keep track of my word count. Will I finish this project during NaNoWriMo? That's the goal! #writersofinstagram #writing #amwriting #nanowrimo
