A shopping list? A to-do list? Christmas list? Repair list?
Me? Oh yes! I’m lost without a list for everything. I’ve lists on my phone, on the fridge, on my desk, and in my computer.
I can hear you. Yes, they overlap but how else will I have the list when I need it.
But I’d never thought about making lists for my story or for my characters!
What a wonderful idea.
Not only have I divided it up into sections but also made lists for my characters and scenes.
I even made my protagonist an anal list maker. How fun. 
My manuscript now has lists (steps) that the characters must complete in each scene.
Okay, I heard you. Yes, it’s a lot like scene goals, but I’m breaking it down a little further. For me it’s working to break through a bit of stalled writers slow down, I’ve had lately.

I’m a great lover of lists Jean. In daily life, shopping lists, to do lists, and especially for writing, lists of points to cover for each chapter in color coded post it notes. 🙂

I’ve used lists all my life. When the kids were little, my excuse was “Mom brain” now that I’m older, hmm, not going there. LOL

I should do lists for my projects. Not only would it help me remember [have short-term memory loss] but it would probably help with motivation. I think I will follow suit. 😉

I think a list is important, it helps at times when I wander around at the supermarket, wondering what else I need. 🙂

I’m lost without one. A list is sounding more and more like an outline. LOL
