“Checklists” [Reflections On Ronald B. Tobias’ Book 20 Master Plots Series – General – #7/7]
My Writing Index does this well –
Survey and in-depth source that’s swell,
At any time along the trip
Cuts overlapping points to zip.So how do we lay out the plot?
The “Write In One Month” guys have got
A sure-fire way for me to go;
This other stuff? Low need to know.I well recall my research prof
Said, “Watch yourself – don’t get thrown off;
Your writing history’s the key –
You mess with that, you’re history.”One other prof said, “That’s for kids;
You’ve grown already – now be rid
Of obligation to make tweaks
To what works well – just keep it neat.So, in my case, I’ll just review;
Take look around for concepts new;
Bad eye, so I don’t read much now;
It’s book-tapes heard – that I’ll allow.Thanks Lord for this.
