Like any idea you conceive in life, fiction starts and ends in the mind; first in the conscious, then the subconscious, and finally digging deeper into the labyrinth of ageless wisdom; the subconscious, the ever-lasting fountain of imagination and inspiration.

The final bullet point represents a neat little trick I have employed all my life in resolving problems, in realizing goals, and eventually as a tool for crafting fiction. I call it reverse plotting but it is in effect the act of thinking backwards to arrive at solutions.

It is the cornerstone in all my works of fiction.

In the Ultimate Creative Writing Course I illustrate the amazing power of reverse plotting by showing you how I used it to create the basic storyline for Beginners Please: Murder, my first murder mystery.

To your success...
