Organising You Work

If you have ever farmed, or seen a farmland or even talked to a farmer you must know that a farmer always categorises the land. A farmer divides the land into pieces and organises his work. He doesn't cultivate legumes, tomatoes and potatoes in the same plot. Instead each plot is divided into areas so, that it is more easy. The same goes with writing. First thing to do while writing, Organize. Create a Folder (whether in your Computer or a file.) And inside the folder create other folders for Plot line, Chapter, Characters, and other stuff. This helps you work better.So, instead of simply creating word documents. Categorize them. Trust me, you find things much more easier.If you are not working on a computer, you needn't use a file for each of the category, instead, simply divide a file into parts.

Lets take each folder. The Plot line folder can help you write the main plot line. You can write the main plot line, the setting, or simply collect information related to your novel. In the Chapter folder, you can create documents for each chapter. This will help you access each chapter much easier. In the character folder, you can create a document for each character. This can be simply the description, the importance of your character, or just include chapters where you character is. It is always nice to have characters which stand individually. But too many of such characters is boring as well. It'll be confusing. So, slowly organize your work before starting to write.
