    Nice. I like all of them, although not all of them work for 1 novel. Experiment with each and find your style.

    Well at least you aren't following disney's example where parent's died or will die as the story goes on.

    Not sure I understand what this particular one means: "You have to know yourself: the difference between doing your best & fussing. Story is testing, not refining."

    I didn't count them it was written there so i used as title for thread ;o but it seems you're right
    I think it meant that you should do your best and not to be overly anxious to make it "perfect" because it more likely will make it only worse

    The most important I see is doing the ending first. Too many stories end up with crappy endings that take wild turns from what has been going on. For example Mushoku Tensei as a good ending story
