EXCERPT

Does The Romance Novel Formula work best for “plotters” or “pantsers?”

Both! If you are a plotter, you can use it to outline your novel. If you are a pantser, you can use it after you’ve finished your first draft to make sure you have everything where it needs to be. Of course, you can also do something in between those two options. The point is to find what works for you. If you are new to writing, you might not have heard of these terms, so I will give you a quick explanation here. For those who already know, feel free to skip ahead. A plotter is a writer who plans every stage of their writing. They plot and outline every important part of their story before they write it. James Patterson is a famous plotter. This approach can stop you from running into trouble as you write because you always have a clear direction to go. On the other hand, it can also stifle your creativity and make it difficult when a character goes off script (which happens). A pantser is a writer who writes by the seat of their pants. In other words, they go wherever their ideas, the story, or the characters take them. Stephen King is a famous pantser. This method can be great for those who revel in the creative side of storytelling. However, with no clear plan, the ideas can dry up and manuscripts can go unfinished. As you can see, there are benefits to both. Though some people will try to convince you one is better than the other, the fact that so many writers are successful using either method tells you they are equally valid options. In case you are curious, I am a plantser (just what you want, another unfamiliar term!). This means I utilize aspects of both plotting and pantsing in my writing. You can feel free to do the same.

După mulți ani de durere și întristare, un bărbat pe nume DR WALE a venit în ajutorul meu. M-am căsătorit cu iubirea vieții mele și amândoi avem trei copii împreună. La început trăiam liniștiți ca o familie, fără nicio problemă. Dar, pe măsură ce timpul a trecut, eu și omul meu au început să se lupte serioase între ei. Lupta dintre noi a scăpat de sub control și soțul meu îmi spunea să ne despărțim. Îmi spunea că vrea să divorțăm de mine. Chiar în fața ochilor mei, soțul meu și vânzătoarea noastră au o aventură. Soțul meu a început să mă trateze rău pe mine și cu copiii. I-am spus unui prieten despre comportamentul meu față de mine și de copii, apoi prietenul meu mi-a spus despre DR WALE. Pentru că trebuie să caut o soluție înainte ca totul să scape de sub control. Când l-am contactat pe DR WALE în acest sens, el a făcut o verificare rapidă pentru mine și a aflat că vânzătoarea mea a fost cea care se afla în spatele a tot ceea ce se întâmplă. L-am întrebat pe DR WALE ce trebuie făcut. Mi-a spus că va trebui să fac o curățare spirituală pentru a deschide ochii soțului meu și, de asemenea, să fac vrajă. Am plătit pentru tot și restul a fost istorie. DR WALE a făcut cel mai bun lucru din viața mea. Ochii soțului meu erau limpezi și ne-a implorat iertare pe mine și pe copii. Astăzi, toți trăim din nou ca o mare familie. DR WALE mulțumesc pentru tot. DACĂ AVEȚI PROBLEME ÎN CĂSĂTORIA, RELAȚIA SAU JOCUL DE LOTERIE DR WALE ESTE CEL MAI BUN OM DE CONTACT.
