Loved this episode! I have an article in the July / August 2022 issue of WRITER’S DIGEST on “Creating Your Story Frame,” and my frame is in many ways similar to Steff’s skeleton, but Steff’s discussion highlighted for me the importance of a frame / skeleton not being an entirely separate document, as an outline would be, but something that morphs seamlessly into the manuscript. I also really appreciated her position that plotter / pantser is a spectrum, not an either / or. Thanks, Steff–and thanks, Sacha, for hosting yet another great conversation!
