When I write a story, I write out what I call a framework. Sort of a list of bullet points in sequence loosely describing events and such depicting where I want the story to go. Then I flesh out the details tying everything together. Kind of like a flowchart. Hopefully that makes sense to someone other than myself.
As s student writer, and still have not put my nose the grid stone enough and or frequently enough.
I'm curing my writers block with jotting out/ down the theme of the story.
totaly stopping the block.
that is for me the who, what, where, when and why and how.
everything is just concept in getting the main Idea down on paper (screen)
This is my step one, like putting together a puzzle the border comes then the rest puzzle.
then the actual details in proper conceptual order of the theme,
a finishing rewrite for the intent of the idea/ concept.
Yes this is conceptual itself, I've never done to see if it works (for me).
little helpers like this here, DO help thank you!
