how to turn your IDEA into A BOOK novel planning 101 (tips + process)

I wanna watch the rest but i haven't had chance to read six of crows yet and I don't want any spoilers lmao 😂🥲

Thanks for this video im starting my first story/book it's about a rich cannibal who believes that love is stupid and not reality that is until while hunting(killing) his pray is killed by another he is angry and plans to kill her but love works in mysterious ways 😅 i got this idea from my favorite show Hannibal lecture 😅 let me know if this is a good idea i have many more if not😊

I literally love writing! I have millions of ideas living in my head :) Most of the time though I don’t act out on them, but I am planning on making a story that I will eventually turn into a horror game! I’m so excited of what the future will hold, since I’ve got so many fun twists in mind! Thank you for making this video! It’s so great to see that others enjoy writing as much as I do! :)

me just tryna see the notebook she pulled out first after she was done talking about wracon:
(it's so SO cute pLS tell me what it is)

Im really glad I have come across this video. Ive been on a wroting break and completly scrapped the story i was working on. I got too wrapped up on worls building to realize the story itself didn't work. Now, 3 years later. Ive done more studying into literature and story telling of various forms... I have a lot more of a solid idea for a story. Simce its been while since ive started from scratch, this video has definitely helped. This is the most confident in what kind of story i wanted to share. I have an actual point and message I want to say.

Thank you so much!

i enjoy writing more fantasy tyoe stuff, yet ive never gotten anywhere far with it. ive only gotten around 50-60 pages done when im always aiming for at least 100 pages. i saw this video and decided to check it out. still in the brainstorming part, but this has already been a huge help! i already understand what im going to be writing about more than ive ever understood what ive already written. never seen you before, but your helping me out girlie! ✨️

edit: ive already dumped that last idea but i think its because im doing things ive only thought about for a day or so. this time, im doing something thats much deeper than the last idea. my temp name for it is Liar's Throne. its where the king or this medieval/fantasy kingdom is a tyrant and the main character is a knight/guard of this said tyrant. the knight soon realizes that the king is a tyrant and experiences the moral dilemma; the life he has, or a better life for the rest of the kingdom.

I have a book competition in school. I want my story to be a kid’s book but also a book where adults can find the deep meanings my characters depict and also relate. I will come back with the results !! 😖

I purchased the Story Builder from WRACON…can’t figure out how to actually use it.I am stuck in demo mode…Any help would be great.thanks

started thinking of a fantasy novel, i had always dreamt of being a novelist. and i watched a lot of fantasy movies/series. and i did had multiple other ideas, but they were old. this one was new. and i actually wanted to publish an actual story. so here i am :)

"A perfect product for ..." - Yes, assuming that you operate in the Apple sphere and/or mobile sphere. I do neither.

OMG ana, girl, I have NO idea how much you helped me to develop a romance book series. Luv u

Could you please do a part two? It was so helpful!!!

I'm recently planning a Fantasy Series and this video popped up at the right time. I was having trouble with motivation and ideas and this really helps.❤ I love to see young writers following their dreams, (like me).

Thanks so much ❤!!! That was so useful 💜💜💜🤩

I started writing a book series last year that is a Horror/Sci-fi/Fantasy, and I just finished book 3. Maybe one day I'll publish. You have the best ideas. I watch your channel all the time. Your channel has been so helpful ! :)

ur videos are so helpful <33 im currently brainstorming for a webtoon, not a book LOL but these have been rlly helpful for developing the plot so tysm

What’s the app used for the characters portraits?

hi ana, can you use the story builder only if you have a tablet or ipad? it looks amazing but I don't have a tablet or ipad...

Hello Ana, really thank you!
And I hope you can do a video on how to do a to do list for writing our first draft..Like all the things we should do! ❤

I needed this so much, I just came up with a prompt. Tysm ana

You are the most helpful person on this planet! Thank you!!!!

Hello, will anyone know of any template like the one Ana taught in the video, but free?

insane how I always find videos of yours that answer the exact question I needed to be answered 😭

Hi Ana! You might not see this, but I hope you do.
I had a question.
I get a story idea and I build on it, make the plot in my head and everything. Then I sit down to write it but it never really captures exactly what I'm going for. It always comes off a little whimsical or sarcastic, even if that's not what I'm going for. So I guess what I'm trying to say is if I'm writing a funny scene, it'll come off as serious and if I'm writing a scene with all the tears flowing, it'll come out kind of funny.
Do you have any tips to help? Or anybody reading this, actually.
Thanks <3

This was SO helpful! Can’t wait to see your next video!

As I sat restricted behind a window, my mind wandered to the possibilities of venturing outside. The trees on the other side appeared to call out to me, and I longed to explore the mysterious and eerie forest beyond. The forest floor was filled with heavy raindrops. My cheek felt numb as I leaned against the chilly window. Somehow I felt a sense of belonging, which I had never experienced before. Mother never let me outside. Never. I remember vividly one memory of touching the rough bark of trees and the damp forest's ferny floor. But I have yet to experience it again. I took a deep breath as the faint moist smell of rain lingered in the air. It reminded me of my childhood. I longed to experience it again, but life had taken me in a different direction. Nonetheless, the memory still brought me a sense of peace and contentment.

Is this a good start to a book? I'm currently 12 and am working on a fantasy/horror/romance! I love your videos ❤❤ you are the whole reason I'm becoming an author

I'm brainstorming a book since January (I can't write it yet because I have an ongoing book that I want to finish first) I always write down specific questions that I need to answer before starting

how well would a story come out if you plot a series of two book together in the same plot?

Hey Ana, can you do another 'reading your last sentences in your book' because I really want to show you!

Keep strong. Dont forget that despite the struggles in this world, God is full of justice, mercy and love.
Justice said we broke His perfect law - causing the world's previous perfection to be destroyed - and therefore we deserve Hell (like a punishment in any legal system but this is eternal as His perfect law is eternal too). Don't think you fit in that category? Ever done one of these?: lying, stealing - regardless of how small the object EVER, hating others - which is murder in God's perfect law, lusting (plus God sees our entire thought life). Justice says "the soul that sins shall die" - if we break one in thought/word/deed it's as if we're guilty of all of them. Quite simply, living by the law (which is doing everything perfectly) is impossible for sinful humans

. The law shows us that 1. We will die in Hell if we fail to follow it and 2. We cannot save ourselves BUT, 3. God's perfect, immovable law points us to Christ, who followed and fulfilled the law in thought, word and deed perfectly in our place. He did what we couldn't and did it on our behalf. He was then sentenced to death on a cross, and took our personal punishment for our sin, paying our penalty (like paying our fine) completely FOR us, and has given us freedom.

If we turn from the sins we have committed and repent (pursue the opposite direction of love through Christ) He will, overtime, recreate us back into that previously perfect image through The Holy Spirit which Jesus sends to all who accept Him as their personal Lord and Savior of their life. He will help us through the struggle, the stress, and anything we experience in the world. It's about letting Christ in to guide and teach you and obeying Him through His power (not ourselves, we need Him to help us as it's impossible without depending on His power and instruction).

He is our substitute in His life, death and resurrection. He essentially rewrote history in our place so that, if you believe in Him, it will be as if you had never sinned if you accept Christ's death as our own in our place.

He is in Heaven right now preparing a place for us so that He can take His faithful, believing children home with Him when He returns. He will ressurrect us from death when He returns, giving mercy to those who accept His love, instruction and teachings in their life, and give justice to those who refuse it.

He doesn't want ANY of us to go to Hell and die for continuing in evil and rejecting His way to life, thats why He died FOR us. Hes giving EVERYONE a chance, He wants everyone to take the free gift of salvation from Hell. He wants us to be His and begin to follow His life of love and service through His power and abiding (staying) with Him. So long as we keep our hearts near to Christ through His strength, strive to follow His will of perfect love revealed in the Bible, and let Him lead in the midst of (very certain) pitfalls and struggles, we will, in time, win the ultimate victory over sin, pain and DEATH through Christ. Even if you are willing to be made willing, pray for Jesus to come in and He will do what we can't. Give us The Holy Spirit who will guide us in the right way.

NOTE: You are NEVER too sinful or messed up that God cannot turn your life around through Jesus. EVER. Regardless of what you've done or what you're going through you CAN make it through Jesus.

If you have any questions let me know xx

So good! Thanks so much, Ana!

I’m literally writing a children’s book about a talking cat 😸

I wrote 3 chapters of a book about a kid who goes to a spy school to know about his grandfather's past or legacy

Thanks for this! I’m currently writing my first book. It’s about a pregnant physiologist who moves next door to a older lady who eventually becomes obsessed with the physiologist’s pregnancy.

:o Perfect timing! I'm looking at really putting an idea to paper right now :D Thank you!

heyy ana i am going to boarding school where phones are not allowed or laptops and i am working on a project right now i was wondering you could tell us some tips about it, if we can write a book in a notebook and then type it in later?

I need to focus on this book that I’m writing called the Shadow Descendant but nooo my mind was like “forget that project let’s make this new project about space and warriors, see you already came up with a name me!”

Literally started brainstorming a fantasy novel this morning, and I’ve been out of it for so long. Or at least, out of it regarding my writing. So this popped up just at the right time. Anyway, always adore ur vids girl, it’s nice to see other people my age enjoy writing. 😩

plotting my books are always boring but this kinda helped, thank you for making these ana! :)

Hello Ana. Thank you for your ideas. It was really helpful.

You're always so much help to us starting writers! I hope I'll get to read one of your books soon! ʕ⁠´⁠•⁠ᴥ⁠•⁠`⁠ʔ
