El Gato

Does anyone else think that we should collect these posts about the methods and put them in a webpage? It could help out some individual that just needs that little bit of inspiration to go ahead and put pen to paper (so to speak). Here's my method (or madness, if you like). I start with a character/plot combination. I kind of 'see' the story in my imagination, and put the highlights down in flowchart form. I break the flowchart down into sections that make sense as chapters. Next the 'blocks' or 'chapters' get fleshed out until they make sense to the whole story. (Sometimes a bare 'block' frustrates me for a while.<g>) I try to decide where the story should 'flow', and use the chart to help guide the story. El Gato |
