Technique Tuesday: Using Brackets to Write Faster

Using Brackets to Write Faster

Today I'm talking about a little trick that's saved me so much time while writing first drafts, and I'm so excited to share it with you! Sometimes, it really is the simplest things that can make the biggest difference. Give this technique a try and let me know what you think!

I totally do this all the time. It keeps me from getting stuck on the parts of writing that are harder for me to write during the first draft. So in that draft I have a lot of [INSERT FEELINGS HERE] and [Describe things]. Then the next time I write I work on filling in a few of those brackets before I really start writing new words. It serves as a sort of warm-up for me and makes it easier for me to get back into the story.
