As a very visual person, I have always considered plotting a story to be somewhat like knitting or macrame. How do series authors handle multi novel story arcs? Do they just keep throwing out lines and pick them up when they feel the need to pull together a connection, or is it all planned out well in advance? Is there a technique for keeping track of the loose threads or plotting out a series that is better than notecards/stickies/or a huge whiteboard?
