Start by creating a first draft of the novel. Use an element of your outline, such as a theme, a character, a setting, or a particular scene, to get started. Set up a writing area that is private in your home or in a quiet setting, such as a coffee shop or a shared work space. You may challenge yourself to write a certain number of words a day or to hit a certain page count. Try creating a writing schedule to help you get the draft done. You may also remove any distractions in your area, such as people talking around you, social media, or your internet connection. Shut off your internet while you are writing and turn off your phone or switch it to silent. Once you have completed the draft, do not be afraid to get feedback on it from others. You may show the draft to a mentor, such as a writing teacher or professor. Or you may show the draft to friends or family. Be open to constructive criticism and listen to what others have to say. You may take notes when you discuss the draft with others or have your reviewers write comments on your draft for you to read. You may also ask your reviewers follow up questions to help you understand their feedback better. For example, you may ask, "What did you mean by this note here?" or "Can you explain how you want me to expand this scene?" the draft. Once you have received feedback on the draft, you should sit down and revise it. You may have your outline nearby for reference to make sure all the scenes listed in your outline are in the draft and to ensure your novel follows your outline. You should also apply feedback you receive from others to the draft to make it that much stronger. You may try reading parts of the novel out loud to make sure the sentences flow well and have a distinct narrative voice. You may also read the novel to others and have them listen to the words to ensure the language is strong.

Summarize the following:
Relationships must be nurtured to survive. Social support is essential for your physical and psychological health.If you've been handcuffed to the news for any period of time, your relationships have likely suffered. Reach out to others to build or repair your relationships. Until you are 100% confident with the changes you have made, you will need the support of others. Engage in real and online social situations that expand your interests beyond news stories. For example, take a music lesson, volunteer for a project to help animals, or children in need. It will restore the idea that there is more to life than news. Shared interests bring people together. Investigate and join a group that might interest you. There might be a comedy groups, or city recreation league that will provide the opportunity to meet new people. If you meet someone who you suspect is addicted to the news, refrain from talking about the news. Bring up different subjects to divert the conversation toward a more positive direction. You can always excuse yourself from a conversation if it becomes difficult or annoying. Without being pushy or overbearing, share your experience with the person and offer to help him. You can suggest all the strategies that helped you manage your addiction to the news. Teaching others what you have learned will give you a sense of accomplishment and internal reward far above what watching the news will provide. Learning to overcome and manage an addiction to the news will increase your self-esteem. It is important to keep the information we hear in perspective. A lot of news narrows down the information to a specific, terrible situation. There are usually time constraints so they pack in as much death and destruction as possible. If you inundate yourself with this information, it will skew your perception of reality. Pause and think clearly and you will realize the chances of the same disaster happening again or even at all, are minuscule. Influenza is a very good example of narrow reporting. A certain amount of people die, but in a country with 350 million people, 50 influenza deaths is a small amount. Don't assume there is a pandemic without good evidence. When you're tempted to believe that things are getting worse because of the news, stop and ask yourself something like: Are they really? And why do I think that? Are those facts credible? Taking the time to question the fear-mongering news stories can break the cycle of being obsessed with them. Watch movies or TV shows that don't involve the news or disasters. For example, you can watch shows about home improvement, or biographies of historical figures. Add some humor to your life to balance the negativity of watching the news. It can be healing. Periodically ask yourself if you have laughed very much in the last week or month. If you can't remember the last time you did, then find a way to get a good dose of laughter. Call a friend who makes you laugh, or go to a comedy club to support comedians. Once you feel the benefits of laughter you will make it part of your routine. Life is filled with things that challenge you, and also make you want to celebrate. Much of life happens between those two points. You are able to appreciate the celebratory moments because you know what it feels like to struggle. If you are feeling down you can feel confident that the good will eventually arrive.
summary: Strengthen your support system. Be a good role model for others. Keep life in perspective. Lighten up your viewing choices. Expect ups and downs.
