I\u2019ve had so many people who love to tell me about the story they\u2019re <em>going<\/em> to write. I\u2019ve seen people go, \u201cOh, I\u2019ve thought up a new scene for my book,\u201d &#8230; and they haven\u2019t written a word.&#8221; <strong>Anne Gracie<\/strong>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.writerscentre.com.au\/ep-64\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">episode 64<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I wish I were a plotter \u2014 I wish, wish, wish I could be. It\u2019s just not in me. I try to do it, because it saves you so much time in rewriting and restructuring later on. But it just isn\u2019t me. &#8230;\u00a0I usually experiment with the voice first, usually I just start writing. But, I only do that for a little bit and then I do try to force an outline, even just a very vague one, before I get too far in.

Apparently Graham Greene wrote 500 words a day everyday of his life. 500 words a day doesn\u2019t sound like very much at all, but it adds up, five days a week it adds up to, I think 125,000 words a year, which if you count some of those words that you\u2019ll throw away, that\u2019s basically a book a year.&#8221; <strong>Annabel Smith<\/strong>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.writerscentre.com.au\/ep-56\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">episode 56<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m not a very good planner, so I start with the first scene and then think, \u201cWhat could happen next?\u201d \u201cWhat could happen next?\u201d And I just\u00a0plug away at it until I get to the end. It feels like a very hard process to me. And then when I get to the end I\u2019ve got this complete thing and I can start structuring it properly and fiddling around with it.
