The novel
The IP starting-point is the granite block which forms the basis of all other channels. The novel is a structurally perfect
representation of the story. Writing in a fat-free, cinematic style supported by crackling dialogue helps.
The blueprint is to build a thriller which comes in at around
80,000 words comprising no more than
30 x chapters.
Using
12-point Garamond this would equate to about
350 x pages. It will take me a year to write each novel.
Writing a
SERIES will leverage your IP - it is well catered for in
Amazon KDP.
It is like building a house - Yes! I am in the construction industry...and you will be too! Time to put up the scaffolding...
