Usually I find by the time I get to it, I have to tweak a lot of it, but at least the basics are down that way.

Cheryl Klein gets at this with the whole "core" of the book idea, and tackling what makes that defining scene important really gets to the heart of what you want to write!<br /><br />Happy Chanukah!<br /><br />Hugs,<br /><br />M.Martina Boonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03358736828122139189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6734108232999147338.post-59122169452960291962012-12-10T06:17:20.612-08:002012-12-10T06:17:20.612-08:00Ooooh, naughty!

It would have a temper tantrum if I tried. lol But I do come up with scenes randomly when I work out. I write them down (the idea, not the entire scene), and find a home for it when I outline. Does that count?Stinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11415189347501942340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6734108232999147338.post-56912710487885385192012-12-10T04:30:47.122-08:002012-12-10T04:30:47.122-08:00Love the idea of dipping into the whipped cream of...Love the idea of dipping into the whipped cream of our writing.
