Write Your Novel From The Middle
A New Approach for Plotters, Pantsers and Everyone in Between
by:
James Scott Bell
in:
Existentialism
Summary:
The book introduces a unique method for writing a novel by starting at the midpoint, which is considered the "mirror moment" where the main character reflects on their situation. It provides strategies for both outlining (plotters) and improvisational writing (pantsers) to create a compelling narrative structure from this central point.
Key points:
1. "Mirror Moment": Bell's concept of a midpoint self-reflection that shapes the character's transformation.
