I spend a great deal of time mulling things over and over in my head and then write down general ideas as they come. If I had planned the story out in advance, I would have missed some of the creative ideas that come along later. I believe this planning in my head saves me many revisions on paper.

Before I write, I always have an idea on where my story will end, and very basic plot ideas as the story moves forward, but I'm more a panster than a planner. It is the fun of new ideas jumping onto the page!<br />I'm glad you're having so much fun writing. That's why it is addicting! I can't wait to read it!!<br />Sheri Levy <br />sheri levyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08044105588939751015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6581277174023785317.post-78892658639224089892016-03-22T10:12:19.655-04:002016-03-22T10:12:19.655-04:00Thanks, Clara.
