I love that the words are flowing. No matter how you get there, that's really the most important part: getting words down on the screen.<BR/><BR/>But... umm... I hate to break it to you, but "figuring out what happens to your characters and how they overcome their obstacles" IS plotting. *g* It doesn't have to involve charts or crazy formulas. Plotting is knowing in advance what's going to happen, and whatever method you use to figure that out is the plotting process.<BR/><BR/>Smooch!<BR/><BR/>Lacey<BR/>http://www.laceysavage.comLacey Savagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01265230461620303348noreply@blogger.com
