Planning writing projects

Some writers are adamant they never plan. I place them in the same category as students who boast they didn’t revise for an upcoming exam. Planning is simply thinking about what comes next after you’ve put one foot in front of the other, and if we didn’t do that we’d fall over. So whether you plan a lot or a little, you plan. Trust me. Everyone just does it in different ways and there are plenty of tricks to doing it better.
