Need to Transcribe Rough Text

I wrote a few years over sixty pages of this novel and have mapped it. To get back into the book, though, I will handwrite all that I’ve typed already into notebooks. As I do this, I will improve on what I’ve written and may change the direction of the story. I find that by handwriting a story, I tend to be more creative and worry less about making the text perfect.

I’ll start transcribing soon. I’m waiting to finish corrections to the No Friends novel so that I can release the print edition of it before starting on this novel.

The notebooks I create are interesting keepsakes for me. This time I’ve ordered Moleskine notebooks with the title of the book on the cover.
