Welcome! This presentation is part of the 2024 Authortube Writing Conference. I will be sharing my experience struggling to balance the research and drafting processes for my historical fiction novels. I will be giving some strategies and tools to deal with the things I found challenging that I hope will help any writers out there with similar setbacks. There will be time for live Q&A at the end of the presentation, so enter those questions ASAP!
DESCRIPTION
Whether it’s procrasti-baking or buying a fifth new pen, writers can get very engrossed in NOT WRITING due to fear of the great task they’ve set themselves, and one of the easiest ways to do so is by endlessly RESEARCHING. Here to set you—and herself—straight in this regard is Margaret Pinard, author of 5 novels and 1 collection of short stories. This seminar will explore writer fears that may need to be addressed, showcase cold calculations to make when assessing one’s setting and worldbuilding, offer a checklist of types of research to cover, and present examples on the spectrum of good-bad-ugly draft passages to illustrate where a novelist might need to keep going—or head back to the library.

🙋🏻‍♀️I'm Margaret, a historical fiction (and fantasy sometimes!) writer, using this Booktube channel to connect with readers, writers, and other lovers of words (and tea!). There will be cat cameos, books you've never heard of, and positive community vibes. Welcome. 🌈
