Outlining can be something that’s intimidating for a lot of writers. When we think about outlines, we think about long, complicated documents where all the fun and mystery of writing has been removed.

But an outline doesn’t need to be like that! An outline is a living document whose sole purpose is to support you, the writer, in the creation of your project.

In this book, we’ll discuss what an outline is, why you want one, and how to know how much outlining is right for you. Then we’ll go through different outlining techniques before touching on using outlines for revision and troubleshooting outlining issues.

Come find out what works for you!

Story ideas can strike anywhere. It can be a character, a plot, an overheard conversation--literally anything. Typically we as writers just jot them down somewhere and then hope we can find that spot when we need that idea later.

It’s a much better plan to have a place for ideas to go, so they’re all in one place and easier to find when you want them. This pocket book is designed to be small and easily portable, so you can keep it with you for when inspiration strikes. It is also divided into sections so you can organize your ideas as you get them.
