So about that stringing-together-scenes thing ...

[apocalypsos]

I just did this in the name of plotting all of the books I've got planned.

1. Taped a long piece of brown shipping paper on the door to my living room.
2. Labeled a bunch of sandwich baggies with the names of each book.
3. Taped the baggies onto the paper in nice neat rows.

This way I can write scenes at random -- REALLY random -- and just drop them into the correct baggie as I come up with them. Man, I hope no one comes over to my apartment right now so I don't have to explain this to normal people. Heh. :)

And now I really want a cherry limeade Slushy. *sigh*

EDIT: You know, I was looking out the window just now and saw another person in Crocs, and I know they're comfy as hell but there's a part of me that's sworn never to wear them because they look so much like that and not a damn thing like this.

You know what also works? Shoeboxes and index cards. *nods* I did that back in the day when I didn't have a computer - now I hate writing longhand b/c I can't read my own scribble. :D

HEE. I was going to try boxes, but I didn't have enough of them to do it. The baggies I have plenty of. :)

*grins and nods* Makes perfect sense.
