So let’s just say you’re a plotter. Or maybe a pantser trying to learn how to become a plotter. You need this chart. Fill it out before you start your first draft, and you’ll be 70% less likely to make huge logistical errors and/or have plot holes so big you could drive a Chevy through them. And my favorite part? The satisfaction of checking off each scene as it’s complete. You’re welcome.
*Black bars help visually separate chapters. To clear my example information, simply highlight the cells you want to empty and push “delete” (not “backspace”).

Thanks for the worksheets!
My pleasure!
Great worksheet. Thanks for sharing!
This is beautiful. You are a life(novel)saver!
This chart and your plotting worksheets are very helpful. But, how do you decide which POV to use for each scene, and where to break a new chapter? Thanks!
Thank you! I’m afraid the craft of writing is a little beyond the scope of my Organized Writer documents. You might try browsing writing-advice-specific blogs for that type of thing!
