My Book 3, in fact, will start with a scene I cut out of Book 2. I'm also keeping each copy of the revisions as I progress, in part for the backup and in part for the later reminiscences.

Prologue is often back story, and might be useful at some time. In fact, the prologue from one of my stories laid out the bones of another story - one of my most popular stories.Valerie Douglashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18290746965893799388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1932376865726081805.post-82333298283250226302011-10-09T12:57:27.336-04:002011-10-09T12:57:27.336-04:00Thank you, KathArine!

What I did was taken notes in my folio, a practice I honed over the many years as a student, and when something needed Tweeting I'd wait for a slower moment.The Other Stephen Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14471972807328125155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1932376865726081805.post-56163505903775585822011-10-09T12:36:13.820-04:002011-10-09T12:36:13.820-04:00Thanks for all these great notes!

It's hard to tweet, listen, and get down everything you really want to remember, and I think you did a great job here of summarizing many critical bits.KathArinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10637837568991000563noreply@blogger.com
