NaNo Update: Step 4 – Expanded Summary Paragraph
Continuing The Snowflake Method on my unnamed NaNo novel. Summary: Marcus, a Roman soldier, gives up his sword and attempts to convert after witnessing the death of Christ.
Step Four: Take several hours and expand each
sentence of your summary paragraph into a full
paragraph. All but the last paragraph should end
in a disaster. The final paragraph should tell how
the book ends.
Not all of my paragraphs focus on a disaster. I’m still thinking about those, but I believe I have caught the general gist of the idea. I’ve gone ahead and done this exercise for the paragraphs I came up with for both of my main characters, Marcus and Gaius.
