Is writing your first novel in word the way to go? I am a screenwriter hoping to write my first book and don’t even know where to start.

Whatever you feel best writing on! I personally use Google Docs bc I grew up using it but anything works as long as u like it

There’s no one right way to start but using word works perfectly! Similarly, I use Google Docs to get started.

I use Scrivener personally but there’s nothing wrong with Word! I used to use Google Docs but after about ~200 pages it starts to lag.

I’m currently writing a book. I’m about 20k words in, or around 75 pages
