20 Time Project

Needs & Opportunities I'm looking to experience what it's like to write a book and potentially finish it. If I do happen to finish it before the TED talk I have to do on this project, I might try to get it published. Through this I want to be able to become a better writer and hopefully learn from my mistakes in old writing. Audience / Clients / Users My project is going to be more self-directed rather than targeted towards other people. Through this experience I expect to be enriched by becoming better at writing and fix some of the bland writing styles I often tend to use. Timeline By March 15, I will hope to be five chapters into the book. By April 15, I will hope to be halfway or 2/3 of the way done the book. By May 15, I will hope to be nearly or completely finished with the book. Product / End Result My final product will hopefully be a fully completed book or at least nearly completed book.

I don't want the novel to be one measly 200 page book, but something along the lines of 400 pages or something. I've only completed one novel in my life and it was only 330 pages so I want to see if I can push myself to write a better one. In order to do this, though, I'm going to have to make myself be more specific with descriptions as well as make it the length I'm hoping to make it. Now I've just got to think of a plot for it and then create the characters.
