"Let the lawn get shaggy and the paint peel from the walls," bestselling novelist Walter Mosley advises. In this invaluable book of tips, practical advice, and wisdom, Mosley promises that the writer-in-waiting can finish their novel in one year.
Intended as both inspiration and instruction, this book provides the tools to turn out a first draft painlessly and then revise it into something finer. Mosley teaches you how to:
*Create a daily writing regimen to fit any writer's needs -- and how to stick to it.
*Determine the narrative voice that's right for every writer's style.
*Hook readers with dynamic characters.
*Get past those first challenging sentences and into the heart of a story.
*And much more.

A very short how-to book, it covers most of the same things I've read in many other books on writing. It's repeated so often because it is good information, but this particular book doesn't bring anything new to the table.
If you want to write a novel, you need to write every day. That will do it. You will write a novel. It may not be a good novel, but you will write a novel.
