After we’ve come up with an idea, we note down general notes and key points about plot, characters, and point of the AU. Then we discuss what we as readers would expect or want from such an AU, and the things we would dislike and avoid.Now, we start to point out the notes that outline the story as a whole. From then on, we only talk about or take notes of the characters/members (traits, interactions, development, etc.). Most of the time, we take notes or do special research for the world/system the AU takes place in. But sometimes, in ViD too, for example, we just use the characters, atmosphere and the rough outcome we want, to start writing and the rest (world information, interactions, details, etc.) happens on its own.As for the script: after we’re done with detailed notes, we start to make chronological notes about each chapter. We will give you twf! as an example: for a chapter, we’re going to work on, we make notes about the scenes and how many words approximately the scenes are going to take. Aside from that, we have an “every chapter summary” document in which we list every chapter (ba dum tss), divided into first part, climax, last part, and chapter annotation. On top of that, we use different colors or italics for notes that are important for a chapter, the next coming chapters, or the whole story.That’s basically it.╰(°ㅂ°)╯While we prefer to stay organized with our works, we also like to work spontaneously on one. At some point, however, we always get back to making scripts.
We discard and delete notes after we’re done with chapters so, sadly, we don’t have many anymore. We searched the depths and could find some (recent ones, we could only pick few because of spoilers) though.. so, enjoy, we guess? :’D
