The EASIEST way to outline a novel (FOR PANTSERS) | NaNoWriMo Writing Vlog rachel writes 2023-11-04 | a preptober writing vlog!WHAT I DIDN'T MENTION in this video is that this isn't a scene-by-scene outline. You could certainly use this technique for a scene-by-scene outline, but I don't like outlining that way. Some of the ideas in my scene list were scene-by-scene, but if there were large gaps between scenes, I didn't fill them with other ideas. Those notecards STILL were placed next to each other chronologically, since Z idea comes after X idea (with Y missing, for example), but I'll fill those gaps AS I write. I'll make a video for this technique later, but since it's NaNo, I wanted to post this in the meantime for those of you still working on your outlines/wanting to outline!TIMESTAMPS:0:00 - how I approach writing when I'm feeling bad2:50 - my preptober strategy4:52 - my problems with outlining5:45 - my outlining process summarized8:14 - outlining with notecards9:36 - what my book is about11:24 - outlining plan of action13:38 - what my scene list looks like14:47 - recap of my outlining process15:18 - 1. brainstorm ideas15:57 - 2. summarize ideas into one-sentence loglines16:03 - 3. compile all one-sentence loglines into a scene list16:19 - 4. transfer scene list onto note cards16:38 - 5. organize ideas by subplot18:41 - 6. organize notecards in chronological order19:44 - a note on including numbers on the notecards20:11 - 7. finalizing outline in scrivener21:49 - 8. organizing scene notes in scrivenerRELATED:- All about Seventh Virtue: youtu.be/qR9xV__XOK4?si=X9ocjN_EVZUKWz0J- NaNo plans: youtu.be/ipkwFjy_t9o?si=QodrPR0ymsShRFDi- How I made my Scrivener document: youtu.be/oYKnPTV0uWM?si=ewPmrKuZywFUyp7ACONNECT WITH ME:My editing services: fiverr.com/rachelxwritesTwitter: twitter.com/rachellwritesInstagram: instagram.com/rachelxwritesWebsite: bit.ly/3rq2vz5Pinterest: http://bit.ly/2qdKsyMALL MY PUBLISHED WORK: bit.ly/3CYT7Y1ABOUT MEHi y'all!
