How to Write 50k Words in 30 Days

Writing a novel or memoir? The journey to fifty thousand words starts with a single predicate. (See what we did there?)

​

The key to sustained writing is discipline and structure. Look at any of the greats you admire—even the wild ones like Hunter S. Thompson—they all followed a strict routine, every writing day (whatever madness they stoked on the side). Most of them incorporated something kinesthetic between sessions.

​

You don't rise to your goals...you ride with your systems.

​

There are infinite ways to write a novel. Quillpower's simple NaNoWriMo guide (for beginners on up) offers a basic system for breaking down your daily novel writing goal into 4 blocks:

Act 1

Draw in your reader

Act 2

Deepen the world

Act 3

Develop a character

Act 4

Dial up the tension

Can you write 420 words in a sitting?

​

Of course you can.

 

Do that 4x each day and you'll write 50,000 words this NaNoWriMo.

 

Whatever your writing goals are, this simple novel-writing guide helps you break them into manageable pieces so you can actually achieve them.

​

Each segment of the daily guide sets you up to work at a different angle of your storytelling, balancing novel-writing prompts and physical reframes to let your subconscious join the game in a structured, intentional, rigorous way.
