Amor Towles has written two of the highest-acclaimed novels of the past decade, and here's how he outlines them. Some highlights: 1) "I don't work chronologically. It's whatever I want to think about that day." 2) "Only when I know everything that's going to happen in the book and I can visualize it all do I then start writing chapter one." 3) "I don't sit there with a blank page without a sense of going and start to investigate as I go." 4) "I'm an outliner. I plan, design, and outline before I start writing. That can sound very analytical; very left-brained; very precise; very organized. But I do that to free up the right side of my brain in the writing process — the subconscious, dream-oriented, poetic side of the brain." 5) "The more I know, the more I can silence the analytical side of my brain and free up the poetic side to take over." I lightly paraphrased some of the @amortowles quotes above.
