Hi Paul, Here's something I always wondered & now have the chance to ask a successful, hard-at-work author. When you begin to formulate a storyline in your mind, do you know where you want it to end & create a story to fit the end? Or do you start with a random idea/locale & explore? Or does the story develop in the order we read it? What a gift in keeping people riveted to the page; the process fascinates me. Thx
