It really shook up my process and I'd do it again. Generally, all I like to know when I start is my ending. Or at least have a few "sliding door" options on endings.

And I like to save room for surprising myself.(less)

“It's strange how so much life can be lived without speaking”
Adele Griffin, Where I Want to Be

“Fears are to be faced, not denied, and life is to be lived, not mourned.”
Adele Griffin, Where I Want to Be

“Aunt Clara doesn't take her eyes off her toast. Her delicate jet earrings tremble as her knife scratches at the toast like a cat's paw, buttering every inch. Strange how even the most mundane habits of dislikable people can strike such harsh chords. I even hate the way Aunt butters.”
Adele Griffin, Picture the Dead

Topics Mentioning This Author

“We are all refugees from our childhoods. And so we turn, among other things, to stories. To write a story, to read a story, is to be a refugee from the state of refugees. Writers and readers seek a solution to the problem that time passes, that those who have gone are gone and those who will go, which is to say every one of us, will go. For there was a moment when anything was possible. And there will be a moment when nothing is possible. But in between we can create.”
Mohsin Hamid, How to Get Filthy Rich in Rising Asia
