My literary kitchen
Added 2024-06-29 11:25:14 +0000 UTCI was asked how exactly I write my stories: chronologically or randomly, and whether I stick to a plan. I answered that I always make a detailed outline of the story (except for my short fairytales), but how I write after that depends on the specific story.
Interestingly, I tend to use what I call the "cinematic" method. That is, I write down scenes and then stitch them together (similar to how a movie is edited). It's convenient if I write the story as a whole and only publish it after it's finished. But for publishing WIPs chapter by chapter, it is inconvenient (but I still do it).
I am currently trying to come up with a plot for my first detective story, but I don't know if I'll succeed. Frankly, I have no idea how to write detective stories. Maybe I should read some tutorials etc?
