At last, I’m finally getting the interview I did with Grammar Girl up!

And that’s not all! Soon we’ll have an interview with Scott Sigler in a matter of days! And many more interviews this month! January is the month of the interview!

  1. Hi Mur! Long time listener. Love ISBW! I read up on the snowflake method when you first mentioned it months back. I even tried it. I found that it is a little TOO intensively structured, too “scientific”. I am neither a seat of the pants writer nor a plotter, but somewhere in between. I’ve been using the “index card method” and I found Alexandra Sokoloff’s blog in which she explains. http://thedarksalon.blogspot.com/2008/10/story-structure-101-index-card-method.html
    She has a series of really good pieces on Story Structure there. This includes her method for plotting. Check it out. (I’m not connected to her in any way, just passing on a good resource for writers.) Cheers, keep writing (and podcasting!)

    Like Sue, I’ve tried the snowflake method. In my case, I found it too restrictive. I prefer just writing with organic abandon. I like being surprised myself when I come up with a surprising plot twist.

    - tying into the podcast, the brief ‘spelling’ of words (I use the term loosely) annoys me too.
