Ep657 - Kristina Stanley, Author and CEO of Fictionary

Kristina Stanley is the bestselling author of SECRETS TO OUTLINING A NOVEL, SECRETS TO EDITING SUCCESS, and SECRETS TO WRITING A SERIES, as well as the award-winning STONE MOUNTAIN MYSTERIES SERIES. In 2019, she developed a brand-new structural editing software, Fictionary. After years of outlining and editing in complex Excel spreadsheets, she designed the program she always wished she had. Since then, Fictionary has grown fast, now offering Fictionary Live!, an in-depth program of outlining, writing, and editing courses, and StoryTeller software, which supports writers through their entire writing journey. In this interview, we talk about misconceptions about writing, the importance of outlining and the different approaches, Fictionary, and much more. Want more?
