THIS WILL BE THE LAST
She's such a kind and hardworking editor who always understands me.
Throughout writing this novel, I learned a lot about writing techniques and honing my writing style. I've learnt to ask myself if this chapter is good or bad, or if this story provides different topics and knowledge to readers because I'm not just writing this for fun; rather, I want readers to feel the thrill and get knowledge from my novel at the same time. I even found myself not sticking to the outline I created for this book, which other writers I met told me that was completely normal.

At Arm's length
"I won't tell you writing a novel is not an easy job, It is actually easy when you know exactly what you are doing and you like what you are writing."
"When you want to write a novel, make sure you do your researches and outline your plot. Plotting is very Important." I added, a little bit delighted they were paying attention
"Your story has to begin with an interesting hook, make sure the prologue and first chapter creates a desire to read more, for your readers."

Become A Better Writer
Most novelists struggle to have their debut novel published, but once published they often continue to be published, although very few become literary celebrities, thus gaining prestige or a considerable income from their work.
Every novel worthy of the name is like another planet, whether large or small, which has its own laws just as it has its own flora and fauna. Thus, Faulkner's technique is certainly the best one with which to paint Faulkner's world, and Kafka's nightmare has produced its own myths that make it communicable. Benjamin Constant, Stendhal, Eugène Fromentin, Jacques Rivière, Radiguet, all used different techniques, took different liberties, and set themselves different tas

A Second Life Inside My Novels
For the first time, Cathedra had someone who didn't cringe every time she opened her mouth to speak.
So this is what having a friend feels like, huh? Cathedra thought to herself.
One lunch break, while waiting for Diane underneath the tree, Cathedra was scribbling a draft of her first novel in her notebook. The novel contained the scenes she saw in the storybook, back in her kindergarten days.
Since that day at kindergarten, she didn't tell anyone what she saw in the storybooks anymore. The thought of seeing things that other people couldn't still terrified her but she tried hard not to think about it by avoiding any book she can see other than school books and textbooks.

Last Date
The story had to feel genuine and I waited until I knew it was perfect and respectful enough to write.
2. I did not know how I was going to write it. I didn't know if I wanted it to be a poem, a 50 page book, a novel, or whatever. I knew I had a message I wanted to tell, but I wanted to make the story interesting as well. So I decided to turn it into a novella, because it was not too long and it was not too short. It was the perfect length for me to create my story.

Frequently Asked Questions
Writing a novel feels like assembling a puzzle where you design the pieces yourself. My approach starts with daydreaming—letting characters and scenes bubble up naturally during mundane moments, like waiting for coffee. I jot these fragments in a chaotic 'idea dump' document, no structure imposed. Later, I sift through for gems and build a loose outline, but I leave room for detours—some of my best twists emerged spontaneously mid-draft. The key? Write the first version fast, embracing messiness; polishing comes later. I treat revisions like archaeology, digging layers deeper with each pass—theme in the second draft, sensory details in the third.
What keeps me going is remembering that even 'Lord of the Rings' had scrapped chapters and 'Harry Potter' underwent massive edits. Perfectionism kills momentum; I set weekly word-count targets instead of deadlines. Surrounding myself with inspiration helps too—a playlist that captures the novel’s mood, or a corkboard of visual references. And when stuck? I switch mediums: handwriting a scene or dictating dialogue while walking often shakes loose breakthroughs. The magic happens when you stop treating the first draft as sacred and start seeing it as clay to sculpt.
