How Do You Avoid Going Down The Rabbit Hole? | Ep. 170 | The Merry Writer Podcast

EPISODE SHOW NOTES

We all need to do research for our novels. Some research is tedious but some is fun and it's all too easy to keep researching and not get any writing or editing done. This week, Ari and Rachel discuss how to keep your focus when researching.

In this episode, we cover:

• What the rabbit hole is


• When it's okay to go down the rabbit hole


• Make notes


• Set a timer


• Use placeholders in your draft

As always, thanks for listening, and let us know your thoughts on this topic in the comments below.
