Jade, you ask the scariest questions! I’ll try. I really will!

When I plan (outline) the only “method” I use is to list the events that take the story from the beginning to the end. Then I fill in the details. Snowflake? I imagine that’s filling in details in the form of a Mandala-like shape. I don’t really do that.

I’m not at all sure what “crossing the threshold,” and “the 3 Act Structure” even means. I hope it doesn’t mean that I have to stop writing because I’ve been doing it wrong for 100+ books!

I create characters to fit my plots. Actually, they grow and develop in my mind at precisely the same time.

I can’t think of anything more delicious (you got me at a hungry moment) than hot biscuits with butter melting on them!

Well, these may not be the answers you were hoping for, but at least they’re answers, right?                                     —–GK—–
