I love this! As a ghostwriter, I always roll my eyes at people who have written 3 or 4 books and still don't advocate for strenuous plotting before writing. At some point in the journey of writing larger numbers of books, you realise how much easier and better the work is with a plan in place.

I totally agree with this, Rhiannon. I meticulously planned my fourth novel and then had a baby before I could finish it. Literally, I finished mid-sentence and didn’t come back to the manuscript for seven months. If it hadn’t been for the plan, I would have been completely lost.

We never know what might happen in the middle of our work! Such a good point.
“But STEPHEN KING doesn’t plot,” they’ll say to you. 😂
