Meme Fun and Fic Help!
Nov. 24th, 2003 01:40 pmWell, there's meme fun below, but first, I have a question.
Is anyone out there good at organizing ideas? As in, plots and scenes?
Because I know what I want to happen in my novel. I really do. I know
where I want them to be at the beginning, the middle, and the end, but I'm
having trouble creating a coherent outline by which I'll know if I've gotten
there or not.
