Yes, that’s it. I plan to have Elen write the novel even if it does end up with plot gaps, because she needs the practice in getting from outline to text, and this should be much more fun than outlining essays and rewriting them over and over ;-). I don’t think Anoreth ever finished the novel about the Swamp Critters Bluegrass Band that she was writing for “Write a Novel Month” one year.
I don’t know what Elen plans for her story to be about, because I haven’t looked at her Synopsis workbook page yet, but I think mine will be “middle-aged lady bank manager in the Wild West.” (I’ll have to sacrifice the “driving a truck” element, darn.) Maybe Anoreth will be in it, too.
We discussed, as part of our current lesson, how we can make changes during the outline phase, so as not to find that we’re six chapters into the novel and wishing it had gone totally differently.
Wellden...push comes to shove, you could ask how redhead managed to write her “Logan’s Gold,” novel. I read it every so often because I love it!
And I am amazed that I am related to such talent!
(Sorry, Red...going to bed now...)
” Swamp Critters Bluegrass Band “
LOL!
