The 10 Year Novel - Rough Drafts Welcome

About

Welcome to "Rough Drafts Welcome," produced by Salt & Sage Books and hosted by the delightful duo, Erin and Sachiko. Dive into the intricate world of authoring with us, where mistakes aren't just expected – they're celebrated. From the profound value of beta reading to the delicate art of sensitivity reading, we journey through every facet of writing books. Our tagline says it all: "You – We can mess up here." So, whether you're an author searching for guidance, an editor hoping to deepen your craft, or simply a book lover seeking behind-the-scenes insights, this is your friendly space. Grab your coffee, put on those headphones, and join our conversation – where every draft, rough or refined, is welcome.

Erin and Sachiko dive headfirst into one of the most common issues we see in our writers: circling the same story for years.

You know the authors; you've heard the stories. You might even be one of them! There's something about this story, something about this plot. You might have "world builder's disease" or feel like you just can't quite get this story right.

Whether you've been writing (and rewriting) this story for years or you know what you want to write but can't quite bring yourself to actually start, this is the episode for you.

If you're ready to get some outside help on your novel, Salt and Sage Books is so excited to help you! Start with a beta read if you aren't sure where else to begin, and we promise to be as nice to your story as you need us to be.
