A tale takes a troubled earth. A world where wanderers wake to wonder how they would go today. Tolkien tells of Middle Earth. The Kings talk of Castle Rock. Chandler found the one good man to save the City of Angels from utter condemnation. Words have power for unintended consequences. To consider what outline means to me, I see a rigid hierarchical structure rule bound. To expand that concept to include a map's boundaries and the action’s timelines may prove useful, if it helps the reader navigate successfully from beginning to end. So as you can see the advice that we need most to learn and remember we happily give away lest it infect our own actions.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3969150854665923178.post-9876230973948188122008-04-19T17:39:00.000-04:002008-04-19T17:39:00.000-04:00I love reading both, depending on what I'm in the ...I love reading both, depending on what I'm in the mood for. <BR/><BR/>I just hope that like any long, hard journey, I'll be happy with the destination. The journey's great, but I hope I come out on the seaside, not a trash heap.Clair D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/18081744733758211094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3969150854665923178.post-73957786057390886282008-04-19T13:57:00.000-04:002008-04-19T13:57:00.000-04:00God bless you.
