A month-long novel-planning challenge. NaNoWriMo'ers welcome! 2026 sign-ups open Sept 1st. |
Look, I'm a pantser 100%, but I have helped people plot. There are many different methods: "20240620 Plotting Techniques Part 1" "20240621 Plotting Techniques Part 2" (as examples) but the main thing is what you use, whether it is a formal method or something else, is that it works for you and your story. Want to combine hero's Journey and Freytag? Go for it! Want to use a plantser method (e.g. "20241006 Chasing The Cat" ,"20241007 Outside In Plantsing" )? Go for it! Just want to write down what happens in some vague order? Go for it! Do not feel you have to be tied down to any one method or any one style. You need to be comfortable. Just plot. Don't stress. |
