How to Plot Your Novel Using Index Cards // Book Writing Tips for Authors
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 ส.ค. 2024
- I was recently asked how I use index cards in my current novel plotting system. My book plotting has changed considerably over the last year so I thought I would explain my process. If you'd like to take a look at my previous plotting videos, there are quite a few on the channel. It is amazing to see the progression of how I write my novels.
The index card method is one that I currently employ and use in conjunction with the Dabble plot grid and my bullet journal. I have both videos on these systems linked in the cards for you!
I hope you enjoy this video and let me know how you plot your books in the comments.
Thanks for watching!

// ABOUT ME:
I have spent most of my life waiting to meet a witch, vampire, or at least get haunted by a ghost. In between failed seances and many questionable outfit choices, I developed a keen eye for the extra-ordinary.
When not writing, I spend my free time reading and binge-watching television shows in my pajamas. Currently, I reside in Toronto, Canada with my husband who is not a creature of the night.
I am a Scorpio and a massive advocate of leggings for pants.

would love a thriller plotting video!
Will add it to my list of videos to make ❤️
Thank you! This video gave me courage to just do it. That I can start plotting and then my plotting process can evolve. I don't have to be afraid of being stuck in one process.
So glad it helped get you started! My process changes all the time so definitely don’t put pressure on yourself to stay to the same way of doing it. And in my case it’s even different for every series. Just have fun with it! Good luck! ❤️
Do you have any tips on how to write/plot multiple projects at the same time?
Perfect timing! I'm actually working on a video for next week on how to work on multiple projects. Stay tuned!
😘😘😘
