First Draft In 30 Days By hoover3875 on Feb 05, 2008 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

Writer's Digest Book Club's First Draft in 30 Days is a must have for any writer. This is another book I use for much of my writing. It not only includes an outline but also gives a schedule to get the first draft of a novel finished in a month. I use many books but it depends on the story I am writing. The chapters include brainstorming, researching, evolution of the story and even outlining your career as a writer. I especially liked the last one. It helps to put things into focus. As a mother of two young girls I have to be organized so I have enough time to spend with my girls, keep up with the house chorus and keep up with my career. This book is a great asset in doing that. There are exercises in this book also that are really easy and simple to accomplish.
