I just discovered this app - iTunes blurb below: A Novel Idea is the premier tool for plotting your story and recording bursts of inspiration. Use its simple interface to create your characters, locations, scenes, and novels and then link them together to create your story's plot. Use the Idea feature to quickly jot down your creative sparks and link them to your story elements.

Downloaded for a play. Looks good - pity no timeline though. Another good thought capturer I was using was Werdsmith but I think Novel Idea has more features.

Great post by Lee Kofman on how to kill that poor novel stone dead.

Followed this link from the Writers Victoria posting. Some of my writers workshop people would do well to take it to heart!

This is an example of one of the intensive writing events I was talking about. NaNoWriMo (National Novel-Writing Month) is another.

A fabulous post by YA author Libba Bray on her writing (or not) process. Hilarious but true. Recommended reading.

I spent ages one day checking the dates on my spices and tossing out the ones that were old. At the end of that time I had no writing and lots of empty spice bottles - in alphabetical order. I loved this article. I'm sticking to short stories. Novels sound even more horrifying to try to produce.
