michellem Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 Has anyone used either of these programs, Learn to Write the Novel Way or the one about your family history? I would love to hear what you think of them? Thanks, Michelle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danielle Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 My dd used Learn to Write the Novel Way last year (7th grade). I have mixed feelings--I thought it was well organized, but dd really bogged down when it came to actually writing page after page after page. In retrospect, I think I should have gone with something just aimed at adult writers--First Draft in 30 Days, or The Weekend Novelist--as she didn't really need the grammar/vocab aspects of the program, and did need more help in scheduling and time management. I think it is a good program, but pricey compared to the two I mention above. It really depends on the sophistication of your writer, and whether they are dedicated or reluctant writers. For the sophisticated and dedicated, I'd go with material pitched at adults. JMTC. Danielle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
