Chapter Breakdown Stuff

Ok so basically inorder to even start writing the Punk in Pink I’ve had to write a fleshed out – outline. The finished article will no doubt be completely different from this but I have to do this inorder to actually have a skeleton to base things on!

Thinking about it I have decided that each chapter should have a beginning, middle and end and that each will be a complete scene of the story. They will be approximatly 6000 words each – allowing easy breakdown into my 2000 word bites. I have no idea how this fits with convention either :/

If I’m aiming at the book being 150, 000 words long then this makes for 75 chapters! That seems alot of chapters to be honest but I’ll go with it for now.

This means that during nanowrimo I need to get 25 chapters written which is about the number of chapters slim books have so maybe its not so out!

The chapters are going to be alternating – so Future Punk, Elizabethan Punk, Future Punk etc…

I’m not entirely sure which to have first – was thinking of her dreaming a recurring dream in as both or something but need to think on that a bit I feel.

Right so best type up that Chapter Plan then!
