I’ve been outlining Some Like It Shot, which is the next book in the Agatha Bright Mysteries. This is a little inside scoop into my process: I start with the murder. Then, I add in plot lines about Agatha, her romance, her family, her friends, and the town. Then, I organize them in sequence. After, I write each scene on a notecard. There are always a lot of notecards because I have so many scenes in my books. Is this normal? I’m thinking that it isn’t! As I write, I change scenes and add them and move them around. I’ve only ever changed the murderer once, though, and that was in Jurassic Dark in the Goodnight Mysteries.

You can preorder Some Like It Shot now. Check out the links on my website. Back to my notecards…
