zippywings | The Writing Workflow for Plotters, Pantsers, and Whomever Sits Between Them @zippywings | Uploaded July 2020 | Updated October 2024, 41 minutes ago.
Writing a novel takes planning, dedication, and follow-through, with a heavy dose of insanity—I mean organization—and reaching its proper ending will require seeing it at both the big picture level and the micro-scenic level. In short, writing a novel means you gotta have some foresight. There’s no way around that.
Fortunately, writers today have software allies to help them get that stupid novel finished and readable. This video discusses how four of these programs, Snowflake Pro, Plottr, Microsoft Word, and Scrivener can be integrated into the writer’s workflow to accomplish this goal.
Video also mentions Campfire Pro and Campaign Cartographer 3+ as added resources, even though I haven’t actually used either of them yet.
