Dear Martha, Having written 3.2 books I know what you mean. I write from chapter and character outlines. It helps break things down into "bite size" managable units. First I write the parts that keep playing n my head like old movies and then I do my best to connect the dots in a readable and believable manner.

Then I always ask for people who know their stuff to read my work. Thus far I have had Forum members read about five chapters of my WWI novel. I would rather have a mistake pointed out while I am writing the darn thing than two days after it hits the street. I re-wrote my Civil War novel three times and the Yankees still won!

So if I can help just let me know. Your friend, Scott Price, a.k.a. Roadhog
