Unraveling Weekly Tasks: Deciphering Timing of Information

Every Wednesday, a new writing worksheet is posted to help authors navigate common plot challenges. This week, three new worksheets have been added to the collection: "Who Knows What When," "Ticking Clock," and "Escaping a Tight Spot."

"Who Knows What When" is designed to assist with a specific type of plot hole that authors frequently encounter: chronological inconsistencies in character knowledge. This worksheet provides exercises to ensure that the story's timeline is clear and consistent, and characters are informed about events as they should be.

"Ticking Clock" is a new worksheet aimed at adding suspense and purpose to a plot by using a time-based element. This worksheet offers prompts to help authors create engaging deadlines and time constraints for their characters, ensuring that the story remains tense and exciting.

"Escaping a Tight Spot" is a worksheet that focuses on helping authors with situations where a character is in a difficult or challenging position. It offers prompts to help authors think creatively about how their characters can overcome obstacles and find solutions to seemingly insurmountable problems.

While these worksheets do not explicitly mention filling out and keeping them in a story binder for future reference, it is recommended that authors do so to refer back to them as they work on their projects.

In addition to these new worksheets, there is a related worksheet called "Plot Hole Gapping" that helps authors identify and address inconsistencies in their plots. Users can subscribe to receive an email update when the blog is updated with new worksheets.

It is important to note that the author of the Writing Worksheet focusing on chronological gaps and published every Wednesday is not currently found in the provided search results. However, the worksheets are designed to be easily accessible and user-friendly, making them a valuable resource for authors of all levels.

These writing worksheets can have significant impacts on the plot, as they help authors maintain plot coherence, particularly during breaks in a project. By using these worksheets, authors can ensure that their stories are engaging, well-paced, and free of plot holes.
