- How to take your big ideas and themes and apply them to your story and characters.
- Discover if you’re a plotter or a pantser (that’s a word, apparently).
- What we’ve learned from our guests so far and how we’re applying that to our story.
- The dangers of relying on your outline too much.
- Why it’s essential to be able to hold two opposing views in your head.
- Why texture can wait, and why it pays to be observant.
- And why you should be thinking of where your book will sit in a bookshop.
