That's what led me to go from being a pants-er to being an outliner. It was so that I knew, clearly, what was at stake for the character and what the end game was, which helped me be able to write the thing from start to finish! Also? I think every new writer needs to read the part about structure.Crystalhttp://littlebundleofcontradictions.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2622477097361465.post-52774116576381705262011-08-29T05:37:07.062-07:002011-08-29T05:37:07.062-07:00Thanks, Aimee.

Structure helps me be even more creative.<br /><br />It helps me stop the whole story from falling over. It is just like a building. Look at how many different types of buildings we have all over the world - but the reason they work and stay up is the structure we don't even see.<br /><br />That's the clue - the writer needs structure, and then we disguise it so the reader doesn't even notice it's there.Ebony McKenna.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02724727996270658767noreply@blogger.com
