Start With Something Small

You have a grand sweeping epic of a story idea. Good vs. Bad in a world where it is not always evident who is who. An intricate magic system where your magical power is funneled from hypiverian grapefruit, guarded by evil warrior monkeys (I like it!). There are dramatical swoops of the heart and pangs of the soul, that tell an epic that will wrench and uplift. It is a story that will be talked about for decades to come.

And you’ve almost gotten through your first draft. It’s massive. It’s amazing.

And it’s your first story.

WAIT!
