Welcome to our next episode of <\/span><b>How to Write the Future.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> This is a podcast for science fiction and fantasy writers who want to create optimistic stories because when we vision what is possible, we help make it so.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I&#8217;m your host, Beth Barany. I am a science fiction and fantasy writer myself and a creativity coach, focusing on helping science fiction and fantasy authors with their stories.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">intro2.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>BETH BARANY 01:13<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the last episode, I talked about genre and genre expectations. Once you&#8217;ve taken the time to really study your genre and what readers expect. Now it&#8217;s time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To deepen into believing in your vision as a writer and really trusting yourself.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It can be easy to feel. Like you still haven&#8217;t quite found your place, that your genre doesn&#8217;t quite fit into what the expectations are. So at this stage, you really want to make some conscious decisions. And trust yourself and notice what you like and what you don&#8217;t like.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before you start making any changes. Now I&#8217;m assuming. That you&#8217;ve written your first draft. And now you&#8217;re figuring out.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What is this thing that I have created.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And this really comes with just assessing. What&#8217;s important to you. And noticing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What&#8217;s in there because maybe you were trying to please.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Somebody or something. And what&#8217;s in there because you truly want<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And frankly, this actually leads me into my third tip. I thought I would be creating a third. Episode on this, but one of the ways I test. What I really care about or not is sharing my work with other people.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And this is all about getting feedback.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So once you understand the different genre elements, and once you&#8217;re clear about what elements. Are in your story. Then you can be more.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Conscious about what you want to include and what you want to exclude.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When I was first working on.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Into the black, my first science fiction. Mystery. I wasn&#8217;t really sure. How much. Of what elements I needed. I mean, looking back, I can see. Course I needed to beef up my science fiction world. But at the time , I wasn&#8217;t clear. Which is why we need to get feedback.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So you may be writing science fiction with romantic elements, or you really want to ask yourself, am I writing a romance in a science fiction world?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Or are you writing fantasy with mystery elements or is it a mystery with fantasy elements?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And like I said, because it&#8217;s really hard to see our own work, you want to get feedback.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And I understand why it can be very challenging. Asking for help and getting feedback.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What you&#8217;ve created is very special to you. Precious. And maybe you&#8217;ve been working on it for a very long time. But the fastest way to improve and in art really? And here we&#8217;re talking specifically, fiction is for people outside of you. To tell you how it landed for them. Because at the end of the day,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We&#8217;re writing. Stories, because we want people to read them. So part of learning how to be. A writer is completing that loop. First. You write it for yourself. Then you write it for the marketplace.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And of course, this may not be true for everyone. And I totally respect that. But most of the writers that I have worked with. They write because they want to be read. I know that&#8217;s, what&#8217;s been motivating me since I was a small child. And I read books and I. Loved that experience so much. But I wanted to know how to do it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also. And so that one day I would be read by other people , And be able to impart the magic of story. Onto them. Where people could go and escape into these worlds and have adventures. Writers I meet. They want to be published. They want their vision to be out into the world. And I imagine this is you too. But they get stalled out and end up chasing their tail because they have not yet gotten any feedback on their work or hardly<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Getting feedback does require a certain boldness and a certain bravery. Courage to find people who can give you the right kind of support.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And support can come in several forms. And maybe even more than these that I know of. So here are some of the ways of getting support. You can get beta readers. So these are people who are not writers, but just readers who will read your work and give you feedback?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The other option is to find a critique group. And there are lots of critique groups online, lots of writers organizations also help people find critique partners. And you may know people. Already who might be a good critique group, critique partner. And these are other writers who give you feedback.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ideally constructive criticism. Honest feedback who can help you improve as a writer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So there&#8217;s beta readers or early readers. You could also call them. I used early readers when I was first starting with my science fiction mystery. And then later on, I got beta readers. I&#8217;ve been a part of a critique group for over 20 years and that I&#8217;m in a group now that&#8217;s been going on for over about 15 years.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I also have cultivated beta readers over the years.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And maybe you only have one other writer that you trade pages with, or maybe you have one other reader that you read your work. And that&#8217;s great. You don&#8217;t need to do all of it. You really just need to do one of these things at the beginning.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When it comes time to finding a peer critique group, be clear about what you need and what you want. And also what you don&#8217;t need and what you don&#8217;t want. One of the things to watch out for is, are you really ready for critique? Sometimes I had the tendency of sharing my work a little too soon when really all I needed was thumbs up. Keep going.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I didn&#8217;t really need someone to pick apart the writing yet because the story wasn&#8217;t finished and it hadn&#8217;t jelled in my mind.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, that is one tendency, but the really, frankly, the other tendency I&#8217;ve seen with many of the people who&#8217;ve come to me for coaching and for developmental editing is that they have never showed their work to anyone. So find someone that you trust, who can give you feedback that is. Useful and will propel you forward is encouraging also.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is really no fun to get one&#8217;s work back with just all negative comments.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The third is hiring an editor, and there are a lot of different kinds of editors from story editors, to people who will correct your grammar and punctuation. Usually you want to start with someone who can help you make sure that the story you&#8217;ve created is strong enough: good characterization; good structure; good plot; good scene by scene flow; voice; pacing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There&#8217;s a lot of elements that go into analyzing a story before we even get to correcting commas and punctuation and spelling and word choice, which comes later. You want to work with an editor, ideally who can help you with the story elements first and sometimes they&#8217;re called story editors. Sometimes. They&#8217;re called developmental editors and I do developmental editing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For people who want to learn how to improve the writing so usually I don&#8217;t do just straight editing. I work in a coaching teaching frame to help them improve their manuscripts. And there are plenty of people out there you can hire to also just do a developmental work on your manuscript, turn it back to you, and some, some editors also offer a consultation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So. Let me come back to my second tip, which was about believing in your vision and trusting yourself.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you get feedback, now as the time to really.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Trust your gut, trust your heart, trust yourself, about what is your original vision.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If someone tells you what your story should be, they&#8217;re usually wrong.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But if they are confused about anything, that&#8217;s an opportunity for you to really go back to what it is that you want to create. What are the elements? What&#8217;s the mixture that you want to create of the different genres?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If somebody doesn&#8217;t understand what you&#8217;re working on, it may be that it isn&#8217;t clear enough and more often than not what&#8217;s lacking is the main character isn&#8217;t firm enough.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You don&#8217;t know what motivates them, what drives them. That&#8217;s one of the areas I&#8217;ve seen.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now some people, especially beta readers, even critique partners, they can review your work and not like something and put it down. Like I have romance elements in my science fiction mystery, and that did not please all of my early readers. Some of them told me it was stupid. Oh, that&#8217;s like a high school crush.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But I only got that from some of the men who read my work. Not all of them. Some of them liked fine. But some told me that it was, they put it down. That let me know because I am an avid romance reader and have also written romance. I knew that these romance elements that I had in my story were not for everyone. So that informed me in my marketing. I could add in to the marketing that there are romantic elements in these stories.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also at the beginning, like I said, I didn&#8217;t know if this was a science fiction mystery. Or if it was. Yeah, I didn&#8217;t, I didn&#8217;t quite know how to cast it now. I feel very confident about saying science fiction mystery.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Part of the challenge was I realized I, okay. I needed to make sure the mystery I was a very strong element, was the central element of my story. And that science fiction was also a strong element, but supported the mystery.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Because I didn&#8217;t want my story to feel like it was a mystery slapped onto a science fiction background. Now my readers will be the judge of that, but I think I did a good job integrating the two. But when you pick it up, you know you&#8217;re getting a murder mystery set in a science fiction world with romantic elements.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So I came to that understanding because I had people reflect back at me. The different elements that they liked. In some earlier versions of my story there wasn&#8217;t enough of the mystery elements and there wasn&#8217;t enough of the science fiction. Mostly that&#8217;s about deepening my, my, my story, and that had to do with editing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But it also helped me see what it was I was doing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feedback can help you clarify what&#8217;s working, and also what you need more of and also who your book is for. And these are all marketing considerations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">My work is for people who like adventure set in space with strong female protagonists who are solving complicated problems and there&#8217;s some romance. So of course I said it much more elegantly in my book description.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This particular mix is important to convey in marketing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I hope that this was useful. I know that everybody&#8217;s case is going to be different, and that is why I offer a Discovery Call for people who are curious about working with me.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Go to <\/span><b>HowToWriteTheFuture.com<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to see how to sign up for one of those.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">outro<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Write long and prosper.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Science fiction and fantasy writers, sign up for your No Obligation Discovery Call and get clarity to your writing process and finish your book.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Loved this episode?
