Thanks!TraciSat, 27 Sep 2008 20:49:31 -0000http://carrieanddanielle.com/nanowrimo-how-to-write-a-novel-in-30-days/#comment-2664895Another great (free!) resource for you: <a href="http://www.advancedfictionwriting.com/art/snowflake.php" rel="nofollow">http://www.advancedfictionwriting.com/art/snowf...</a><br><br>It's a process for building a novel, starting with a single sentence ("An orphaned boy learns he's a wizard") and eventually ending up with a detailed outline. It works: I'm currently editing my second novel written using the method! (No connection with the method's creator other than my everlasting appreciation. :)<br><br>I haven't yet sold a novel, but when I do I know it'll be in large part due to the depth of story that this novel method has given my books.<br><br>The "No Plot, No Problem" book is also great. There's a 'button' in there to press to send away your internal editor. I pressed it regularly until she and I became the good friends we are now. :)HeatherSat, 27 Sep 2008 18:51:12 -0000
