Here’s a fun little tip for writers with my brand of brain and an iPad- use Notability!
Or GoodNotes but idk how to use that so good luck, soldier.
I can ramble and lose the plot so quickly and I usually wind up with an end product that makes me wanna scream cause it’s not at all what I was planning. It makes writing suck and it makes it even harder to pick up the pen so here’s how I use it. But mess around for yourself and find what works!
-screenshot and explanation under the cut-
now don’t judge me cause i’m gonna share a screenshot to show you but it’s a teen wolf stetopher fic and there’s definitely typos and my handwriting can be a mess and whatever. i also blurred some things out cause i wanna keep it as PG for y’all as possible and i swear in my notes lol-
Notability is such a good app to use for notes and overviews (I tried GoodNotes but there was too much going on. I’m too utilitarian to wrap my brain around it).
It’s super simple to color code, move things around and make them more visually appealing so it’s easier to process. I make a lot of flow charts too so it’s helpful as hell.
this is just a quick example of a less structured page and how I’d use it. all of the boxes would be individual scenes that I can later rearrange to fit chronologically into the storyline using the lasso tool.
I have a BUNCH of pages like this! I plan out so much before I even start writing.
I often use these sections (but not always)-
characters relationships to each other
internal landscapes of characters at the beginning of the story
relationships to sexuality
the scenes that i’ve played out in my head already (i lovingly call them the brainrot scenes)
major plot points
small little tidbits that i wanna include in characters
the big baddie (if there is one)
maps (if necessary)
worldbuilding facts (how long it takes to get certain places, nearby locations, local shops, etc)
major interpersonal conflicts
chapter divisions
worldbuilding
main character’s relationship to minor characters
scenes that i won’t include in the work itself that add to characterization and might be referenced
anything else the story calls for
I usually color code by character or storyline depending on the story and how I’m landscaping it. I also try to separate my topics to two at most per page so it’s easier to navigate on the page preview section.
Then when I’ve fleshed it out, I set out to make a flowchart per chapter of scenes, storyline and relationship developments!
I see a lot of people only using this app for school or whatever but hopefully it helps you to write too. God knows I needed it.
