I look at different #outlining techniques and how they can help you, depending on your own process.
What does your outlining process look like?

Latest newsletter is out - in it I explore the all important topic of #outlining. If you're puzzled about whether to outline your novel, and when, give it a read.

587 followers · 1015 posts · Server pkm.social@TfTHacker This is a good overview of Obsidian's #outlining capabilities, and it's well-illustrated with video examples.
The one outlining superpower I'm missing in Obsidian is inheritance: the ability to tag a parent node once, and have that tag also applied to all its children. This can be done manually in #Obsidian, but having it done automatically saves a lot of time in apps like #Logseq and #Tana.
Not sure if a plug-in can achieve this, but I'm hopeful!

Fixing Tangents is a Full Time Job
Livestream replay

We get into the basics of my writing (and rewriting) process and I hunt down and fix tangents in my composition. It’s a full time job. With every element you add, there’s more tangents to kill.

Trying to get in some outlining on my project for April Camp Nanowrimo; snuck a candle into our home office for bonus cozy vibes.

145 followers · 325 posts · Server writing.exchangeI have a new outline for Act I of The Polyamorous Faerie Thing (not the real title) and am debating starting to write it vs continuing to outline Act II. I'm thinking it might make sense to wait to outline Act II until sure I'm happy with Act I considering how many times I've outlined or even written the whole thing before starting over.

To start off the new writing year, I’m spending the first week or so #outlining Book 2 in my series while I take a short break from #editing Book 1. I can’t wait to write Book 2, but Book 1 needs to be finished first.
I took a week off from #writing over Xmas and New Years and I’m so excited to get back to my writing again.
Wishing all you #writers out there a wonderfully productive and inspiring year.

Wanted to share my canvas use cases. Currently using it to track Subplots for one #novel and another for tracking Character Arcs for another #story
Yes, the visual empty space in my chapters and scene truly helped me realize just how incomplete my outline for these stories are 🥲

It gives me space to explore and uncover those fresh story moments. How do you feel about outlining? #screenwriting #screenplays #Film #TV #specs #writing #outlining
