 |   A month-long novel-planning challenge with prizes galore. |
It's not the actual story, per se, just the plot for it - where the setting is, what is happening, the characters and how they are introduced. So, it might be: We start in a small village. All the houses are holes in the ground with doors and windows. The people who live there are not quite people - they are much smaller in stature, but look just like humans who have been shrunk. They're called hobbits. The hobbit we're going to be watching is called Bilbo Baggins. And his hole isn't like a rabbit's burrow, but is a house with all the creature comforts we would know from our world. When the story starts, this then becomes: In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a hobbit-hole, and that means comfort. JRR Tolkien, The Hobbit (1937) So our plotting now leads to the story forming in the sprint/writing phase. Does that make sense? |
