Step One: Write a one-sentence summary/logline. Step Two: Write a five-sentence paragraph that summarizes the whole story. Step Three: Write a one-page summary for each of your major characters. Step Four: Take several hours and expand each sentence of your summary paragraph into a full paragraph. Step Five: Write up a one-page description of each major character and a half-page description of the other important characters. Step Six: Expand each paragraph from step four into a full page. Step Seven: Expand your character descriptions into full-fledged character charts, detailing everything there is to know about each character. Step Eight: Take that four-page synopsis and make a list of all the scenes that you’ll need to turn the story into a novel. Step Nine: (Optional) Write a narrative description of the story. Step Ten: Sit down and start pounding out the real first draft of the novel.
