This will most likely change repeatedly as I revise, but for right now, here is Touched, in all its sticky-noted glory.

I already had to rethink several sequences of events and move around a significant number of sub plots as I created the board (where each major plot thread gets its own color) and I can’t tell you how glad I am to do it now, rather than write myself into a corner and be forced to set the MS on fire. *g

  7. LOL! I have an electronic version of this (in Excel), with the cells color-coded for plot threads, POV chars at the top (and a running count of total scenes for each), and space next to each box to check it off once I’ve actually included it in the book itself. The best part is, it’s no bigger (or messier) than my laptop. ;?)
