It is week 3 of Preptober, and as a natural pantser, I thought it would be really interesting to tackle some of the most popular plotting methods and see if any (or all work for me). What's your favorite plotting method?

I really enjoy hearing more of your writing process. I feel like I am always learning whenever I watch your videos.

I like the snowflake method. It is the one that would work for me if I ever wanted to write a book because I tend to be a big picture person.

I think its really cool to see you try out all these methods, and for your next book you'll already know what you like and dislike.

The snowflake method sounds interesting - hadn’t heard of that before!

It's definitely my favorite!

Hi Anne, I do a version of the mind map to get a general overview but I like the snowflake method most. This was so interesting 🙌 I started a system with index cards. So for example let's say one day a scene jumps into my head and it's potentially really good. I write it on the index card. Then as I'm going through my story if the scene seems to fit somewhere I add it in. If it doesn't work I save it as a general idea for another story. 😊

I've done index cards for college essays, but never for books. It's an interesting idea!

I assume "pantsing" means something like "flying by the seat of your pants"? I'm not in writing communities and just starting to get interested so I don't know the lingo lol. This was really nice, to me mind-mapping and the snowflake method sound the most appealing, i'll give them a shot!

Yeah, writer lingo is weird. "Pantsing" basically means writing without a plan and going where the story takes you. It's the opposite of being a planner. Good luck with trying these plotting methods!
