In the context of writing, a "plotter" refers to a writer who plans and outlines their story before they begin the
actual writing process. Plotters typically create detailed outlines, character profiles, and story arcs to map out the
structure of their narrative, ensuring that they have a clear direction and framework to follow. This approach can help
them maintain coherence and pacing throughout the story. Please download the free samples of our book plans by clicking View All  Products button above!

Plotters often use various methods to organize their thoughts, such as index cards, storyboarding, or software designed
for outlining. They might determine key plot points, character development arcs, and themes ahead of time, which can
provide a sense of security and reduce the likelihood of writer's block.
