✨Essential Writing Tips: The Most Important (and Underrated) Step When Starting a New Project✨

What every writer should know when they're starting out

Hello friends!

It’s Bron from Boola Bos here and today I am sharing something fun with you!

Those of you with hawk eyes may recall this was supposed to arrive in your inboxes last week but instead of sending you all a Substack post, I actually spent the night in hospital getting my appendix out. A fun Friday night for sure!

Today all of my organs seem happy to remain in situ so I’m sharing with you the first in a series of craft talks.

In this vid I share what I believe is the most important (and often underrated) step when starting a new writing project.

Whether you’re a seasoned writer or just getting started, I think these insights will help you do your best work

I’d love to hear your thoughts and experiences with this. And if there are topics you’d love to hear more about, let me know in the comments below!

Enjoy the video and happy writing!

P.S. If we haven’t met yet, my name is Bronwen Keyes-Bevan and I’m a writer and entrepreneur.

I live in Toronto and am just about to wrap up work on my first novel. It’s been a looong process but I’ve learned a ton.

Prior to founding Boola Bos, I was newsletter editor at The Shit No One Tells You About Writing, a podcast with over three million downloads that is dedicated to helping emerging writers navigate the weird and complex world of publishing. Over the years I’ve taught filmmaking and screenwriting, been assistant to the writer and director Patricia Rozema, been a culture writer and an editor, I did script coverage for agents and read for literary journals, I helped organize literary events and had many other jobs in between… It’s been a trip!

Why am I sharing this craft series?

I’d like to put my 10+ years of writing to good use by sharing weekly articles and videos about writing craft. I’m planning to share videos full of practical tips on how to make your writing shine ✨
