GSWC- Day 25 & 26
Hey everyone!
Day 25- Today's writing challenge is based on assembling a book proposal. I have to say that this makes me a little nervous, but I realize that it is something that I will probably need to do for my novel once it is done. The exact prompt is: For today’s task, spend the day brainstorming book ideas. Consider your experience, expertise, interests, etc. Look at books on your topics and other topics that might not be related to see if there are treatments that haven’t been applied to your topic.
For this, I am not sure if I should just go ahead with the novel idea that I have already written and in place, or if I should try to come up with something new. It is a little confusing for me. I think I'm going to stick with my novel idea for now though, I think that will make it easier? I have no idea.
Day 26- Today's writing challenge is to figure out who your book is geared towards.
The exact prompt: For today’s task, take your book idea from yesterday and start fleshing out who your target audience is for the book. Age range? Gender? Profession? Hobbies? Etc. Try quantifying, if possible, through organization memberships, magazine circs, etc.
So here is what I think my target audience and everything would be for my book that I am still working on.
Target Audience:
Age Range: 17-50 yrs. I feel like because of the genre of the novel, many people would be able to read it.
Gender: Female
Profession: I have no idea... I don't think it really matters in my case, it is more for enjoyment purposes.
Hobbies: Obviously people who like to read. Beyond that, no clue.
I think that I could probably narrow this down more, but I'm not exactly sure how. I guess once I start looking for a publisher and stuff, they'll be able to help me narrow it down... We'll just have to wait and see.
That's pretty much it for that, but on a side, I just wanted to let you know how I did on the writing 500 a day for the last few days... I did
