10 Ways to Plot While Writing (for discovery writers)

Are you writing a novel for NaNoWriMo but now you're stuck and not sure where to take your story? Discovery writers (or pantsers, as we're... affectionately?...known) can sometimes write ourselves into a corner, but here are 10 tips for unsticking your story to keep it going. My current WIP has not been plotted, so I plan to use some of these tips myself. Wish me luck! Check out https://Carly-Stevens.com. You'll find: -- info about all my books -- a link to a bunch of free fantasy short stories which lets you join my sweet newsletter (welcome to the team!) -- a free fiction self-editing checklist in the shop We can also hang out on Instagram or TikTok: @carlystevensbooks. See you there! If you want to see more videos from me, I have a second channel that focuses on academic stuff -- literature and writing essays and nerding out about being an English teacher. There's still a ton of leftover creative writing videos to discover there if you're interested. The channel's called English Nerd. :)
