Since I’m writing with purpose again, I have been creating new worksheets. Quite a few of them are versions of worksheets already posted here tailored to my own specific quirks, but here is one that may be more generically useful (i.e. one that doesn’t have fields relating to the specific by-laws of my city).

Setting Reference Sheet

I hadn’t realised I had been away from my blog for so long. That just goes to show what full time work does for you… Anyhow, I am still here and still writing (just about). And I once again have a new worksheet for you… Well, perhaps worksheet is the wrong word, but it’s certainly a useful resource.

Character Reference Sheet

I’ve been quiet for a while, but I promise I’m still alive. And even though it’s Tuesday, I have a new worksheet for you!

Ally Worksheet

I’m getting there… Slowly…

So, in the spirit of the now not-so-new year, let’s develop our characters a little.

Reaction Worksheet

Dialogue Worksheet

Ever struggle to visualise your settings? Try do a little planning for each place your characters need to visit.

Settings Worksheet

So I had this brilliant idea for a story. There was a girl and a rival, this little village and some monsters. I knew what the shopping centre looked like. I knew where other people lived. But I had no idea what I wanted to happen in the story. I did a little research and here are my results.

Premise Worksheet

So NaNoWriMo is being a bust for me this year. I’m failing to write anything meaningful, despite all the planning I did in October. Instead of forcing myself to continue writing a story that doesn’t really interest me, I’ve had a think about how I planned in the past and I’ve come up with worksheet.

Plot Points Worksheet

This week, it’s two-for-one on worksheets! Why? Because they’re basically the same worksheet with a different title.

This week’s worksheet concentrates on the middle of the story. Why not the beginning or the end? Well, in my experience these are the easiest parts. You know who’s involved and what you want to happen in the end. But the middle is the stinking swamp you need to traverse to get there. The middle is where all the trials begin.
