Novel writing help?

[Rob]

Hello everyone,

Back in February, I started to write novel titled Jigsaw.

I planned to write the Novel in three parts, and I finished Part 1 and half of Part 2 before other things in life took over.

Now I'm ready to continue working on it, but I've decided to extend Part 1, adapt it and make that alone the novel.

Unfortunately I've got no idea where I should start! I know I want to introduce a new character that everyone thinks is the baddy but is actually a goody, and my storyline is way to complicated.

I guess somebody would probably have to read it to understand what I'm talking about, but if anybody here is willing to give me some advice over where to start in editing it, or perhaps even to read it and give me some pointers, I'd be incredibly grateful!

Thanks
Rob

I find if I visually plan out a memmo board, things present themselves. use google images and bring your novel to life in visual format maybe? I am no professional but this helps me organise my ideas.

Hello my name is Patricia and I just found this site looking for other authors to chat with. I just got my first book published last oct. and am waiting to hear about my second manuscript.

For me when I write I find what works for is to keep a note book handy and then I write down each charactors name and anything about them. Then as I write the story if I add another charactor trait I go back and right it down. It is just much eaiser to keep every thing straight. I would be honered to read your work and make suggestions from a different point of view. you can email me at [e-mail].
