Planning. Oh, Yeah.

Yesterday I wandered into new territory with Dramatica Pro, a software program aid to writing fiction.  It will help me do the kind of advanced planning that my work almost never gets: character development, plot sequencing, character roles, key scenes, creating throughlines and how characters and action play off against them.

Still in the midst of learning it, will take a while.  It will take the spot of the MOOCs as my current learning experience.

I like these gray, rainy days but the brilliant flash of lightning and the roll of thunder yesterday afternoon brought a bit of seasonal displacement in its trail.
