I’ve been working up a story idea using the snowflake method. Step one is a lot harder than it looks. I’ve been hammering out similar one sentence summaries and trying to whittle it down bit by bit like a crazed boy scout.

Recent posts on the snowflake guys blog are a huge help, as both writer and readers are chipping in to critique everyone else’s sentences, which has really helped with my own. Critiquing other people’s efforts is unfortunately much easy than fiddling with your own!

Onwards I plough.
