#2: Initial revision
Some advice I got when outlining my current project is that, in addition to outlining the plot and the characters, I can outline the plot hooks that tie each major section of the story together. This way, when I started writing, I knew which pieces of foreshadowing I needed to add and how each moving piece of the story fit together. So far, it has been very helpful. Here are some of the questions I asked myself about each major plot point in my story: - What is at stake during this chapter? - What do the main characters win or accomplish? - What do the main characters lose, forcing them to continue their adventure or return to this plot point later? - What do the main characters learn?
