When you write a book, do you usually plan out the whole book first, then write, or do you just write and keep coming up with plots?(Sorry if I have grammar problem. I only been in U.S. for 2 years :D)

I plot out the whole book before I start writing. But sometimes when I am writing, I change my mind about things. I would never start a mystery without having a pretty good idea who did it.

Hi! If I’m being honest, you are my favorite author. After reading Whale Done, I read the acknowledgments and saw the “License to Krill” title, and it inspired me to write a book with a somewhat similar plot, and with that title. I have completely different characters, so are you okay with me using the title and plot? Thanks for your time!
