Excellent post Kathy. And I’m so glad to see you storyboarding. I don’t know if I could write if I didn’t do that to keep all the elements of my story straight. I’m always fascinated by other authors processes. Thanks for sharing yours. I have the Ruby Brooch. I’ll be writing a review for the book when I’m finished with it!!! It’s very good.

Teresa, I got the idea originally from you and put it off until I realized I had to do something to help organize The Last MacKlenna. I love it and will never do another book without a storyboard. Thanks for reading The Ruby Brooch and I look forward to your review. Timeless is on my Kindle and I can’t wait to read it. See you next Wednesday on Notes From Tabor Lane.
Kathy, I’m so proud of you for putting your work out there. It’s a fantastic book, and people need to read it. The storyboard looks interesting too. I don’t know if I could work that way though. I think, as writers, you just have to find what works for you and the muddy water clears. Best of luck with it!
JM, you’re right. We all work differently. What I liked about storyboarding was that it became the frame for the house. When some writers storyboard they put every scene on the board. I didn’t do that. I only knew that within each 50 page section something specific (see Alexandra’s story elements check list on her website) had to happen to advance the story. That way I stayed on the road but wasn’t real sure when I’d swerve or take a temporary detour. It’s a very interesting concept, and it worked well for me. I will do it for the next book, too. It’s a visual outline.
