Reverse Plotting for Pantsers in Excel
Let's face it, as a pantser we don't always know where the story is going until we write it. It's fun and i love it but honestly, it's easy to leave plot holes or make mistakes! This is how I've started to reverse plot my story using Excel.

Red Crimes Novel / Why I'm Reworking and Expanding my Previously Published Stories
Sometimes, it's hard to let my previous publications slide, as they are not up to my current skill level... so... I'm diving into the well that was my first publications from 2020, to rework and improve the stories. I'm also expanding the series and adding focus on one of my favourite characters, Rain.
Have you ever reworked your previously published books?
