This week, I've been studying a page from the book-structure chart used by mega-successful author, J.K. Rowling, for her Harry Potter stories. You can access it here. The chart is handwritten and hard to read, but it's fascinating to see what she uses to keep an overview of her story. (Thanks to Rita, one of my private clients, for sharing the link.)
So many published writers, when interviewed, talk about the need to organize their story structure. Storyboards are useful to a point. But charts and lists come in very handy when the first draft is complete and you're on to revision.
