My Writing Process:

Basic – From Idea to Outline to Synopsis to Writing to Polish to Submission

Detailed –

Note: Some of the phases can run simultaneously.

  • In the Plotting and Planning phase – the story idea has been fully plotted out and outlined and a synopsis written.
  • In the Proposal phase – the story has finished the plotting and planning stage and a synopsis written and the manuscript completed and being sent out to agents/editors/publishers as partial submission.
  • In the Writing phase – the story is actively being written on a daily/weekly basis.
  • In the Revising and Editing phase – The first draft is done and the story is now being polished, honed, touched up, revised and edited by me, my beta reader and my critique partners.
  • In the Query/Submission phase – The story has been polished and as perfect as I can get it and is now out on the submission/query trail being considered for possible publication or representation. It has been either submitted to publishing house or potential agents.
  • During the Request stage – the story is being considered at by an editor or agent and additional material has been requested (either a partial or full manuscript). The story has made it past the query stage.
  • In the Acquire phase – the story has been officially acquired by an agent or editor and will be published.
