Start Writing A Novel Today! What's Stopping You?
If you've always wanted to write a novel and then, when you decide to start find you are stuck, don't worry. Even prolific authors find it hard to get started with a new writing project. Perhaps one of the most difficult things may be trying to discover who, what, where, when, why and how you are going to develop the next "Pulitzer Prize Winning" fiction book. This article will provide you with a number of thoughts and ideas which should make your task not quite so difficult and much more enjoyable.
If you have always wanted to write a book, hold that attitude throughout. If you are expecting your novel to get you instantly out of debt, or make you rich overnight, you may want to try something else. Your attitude will seriously influence the success of your writing.
Only 162,000 books are published in the US each year. Do not let this dishearten you however, as there is no reason why your book should not be on that best seller list. Be realistic about your expectations, and your reasons for writing. Doing something because you are passionate about it is far more likely to lead to success.
Once you have the right attitude, you are ready to look at what you are going to write about.

Read them, taking note of they style of writing - casual, conversational, technical, dramatic etc. Some subjects suit a particular style of writing, and you would be well advised to stick to that style.
