To be honest, I don’t know! I carry a notebook and jot down odd phrases and events as they occur. Then look back through it when I am planning a new novel. I choose a starting point, a simple scenario that can go several different ways. Your start is the most important part, you have about ten pages to get your reader hooked, grab them at the start and they’ll want to read on!
