Turn Up And Write - Plotting

I went to another writing workshop with Kate Rhodes this evening. We have to do homework in these classes! Next time we will do plotting, she says. What we have to do for homework is to write a title, a premis and a synopsis for some novels. This workshop is focused on becoming a professional paid writer, not just someone who does it to get their ideas out on a page. She says that publishers these days are very premis-driven. If the premis isn't catchy, they probably won't be interested in publishing your book!

A New Thing Under The Sun

What if almighty God had taken a definite form in the mind of a man, and he had actually written down all that there was to reasonably say about it 2,500 years ago?

What if shady secret societies had been harvesting ideas for centuries and keeping them hidden in secret archives?

What if the publishing industry was a sham that had been turned into a vehicle to harvest ideas for training Artificial Intelligences?

What if someone discovered this today?

What if there was a way to recover lost human knowledge by working together and just using logic and human reason to imagine the past?

You can do this by using mathematics to connect proof-stories together, so that lots of people can develop different pats of the same one whole story. See Architect of Ideas - Some Thoughts About Calculus and Infinity.

This makes me wonder, what's the real difference between writing and other art, apart from the way it's bought and sold?
