The promise of this book's title "2,000 to 10,000, How to Write Faster..." grabbed me. Having written ten non-fiction books, I've been looking for a way to cross over into novel writing. Since my non-fiction actually sells, I feared making the leap to story telling would mean investing tons of hours which could all end up for naught if I didn't get it right. Naturally then, a book that shows me how to write more words in less time looked like a ticket to a fast train to authoring a novel.Rachel Aaron's system is based on her experiences from producing thirteen novels. She translates her 'aha' moments into steps any writer can and should take to increase output. But Aaron goes beyond simple technique. She gets into character development, plotting, time-lines, scene mapping and more.I could not have imagined getting so inspired to write my first novel before I started reading this book. But I did and now I feel like I can confidently move forward into the art of story telling. Thank you Rachel!
