#WriteStuff Q6: Chronologically, what if the ending wasn’t the ending? Consider a writing project you didn’t finish, for example. If the story ended earlier or later in the timeline, might the story have a new life?

#WriteStuff Q5: Think of a scrambled timeline (we see you, too, Pulp Fiction). Can this work with a story you’ve written, or are you glued to your timeline?

#WriteStuff Q4: How about flash forwards (not foreshadowing, but scenes in the future? Have you considered, or seen effective use, of showing what happens in the future? (We see you Saving Private Ryan!)

#WriteStuff Q3: A few weeks back, the topic of flashbacks came up. This is another way of writing backwards. Unvarnished truth: how do you feel about flashbacks?

IDEA LINK: No, Maria, let’s not start at the very beginning.
9 Reasons why it’s a good idea to write the ending first!
Writing the ending of a story first, is not an uncommon habit.  In fact, for many years, I thought I was the only writer doing it.  It wasn’t until I started being asked by writers and non-writers why...

#WriteStuff A7

I created an island off the coast of Mass. called Caleb's Woe for my novel SECRETS AND LIES. Neighbors are suspects in a questionable death. You don't know who to trust. I based some of them on my neighbors - people I like. They love being killed off or tortured in my stories.
7. How about writing about neighbors? Have you written about taking care of them? Or writing something to find catharsis about bad neigbors? #WriteStuff

The easiest way to relate to our neighbors is through our cats. Everyone LOVES our new kitten! He meows at them from the living room window. We take our 5 year old cat outdoors in his yurt on the front lawn spring and summer. Everyone comes over to chat. Pets bring people together.
