Hey there, I'd need help with organizing my work. Where do I start? What should I finish first? Characters? Plot? Worldbuilding? Basically I have a word documents with fragments, Exel charts for timelines, couple of Pinterest boards, a playlist but I can't really keep things consistent and fast paced for the readers.
