A Young Writer’s Journey: Preparing for the Journey

In every novel ever written the main character has to take a journey. This can be a physical journey, a mental journey, whatever. Once they have accepted the challenge presented -or not- every character, fiction or otherwise, must prepare.
Any item with an asterisk (*) is optional.

So, I am preparing for my Journey: A Young Writer’s Journey. If your tagging along, here’s what you’ll need:

Supplies:

• Writing material- pens, pencils, sharpies, crayons*, colored pencils*, markers*
• Notebook (preferably anything to write in. A folder with paper is fine, but a good notebook is preferred.)
  
• Your imagination


• A critique partner* (Don’t worry if you don’t have one)
  
• A computer (to store work after planning in notebook, good for spell check)
  
• Nourishments- any types of foods and beverages that will sustain you for the torturous roads ahead. I like cream soda and butterscotch, myself.


• Your favorite teddy bear (for when you break down crying)


• And patience, because this road is going to be a long and hard one.

Hope to see you on the road
