I have a little notebook that I keep near to me. It contains several sections that I find useful. There's a section for:
- Character Planning - characteristics of my main character (age, looks, strengths, etc.)
- Nuts and Bolts - reference sheet for length of manuscripts, appropriate age groups, etc.
- Edit/Revision Sheet - check list for editing (right tense, right point of view, too many words?)
- Planning Sheet - check list for each chapter (type of scene, conflict, tension?)
- Reading List - recommended books in the same genre I am writing in
- Idea List - ideas I have thought of for future writing
The first section I turn to - the most important section to me is my page titled, "Remember While You Write".
