Mine is in a 3-ring binder. I just finished formatting it in MS Word. I won't print it out again until I get it ready for publication. I want to get the content down, then format.

Wow, I am impressed, Laura! Very cool! What a high-wire act.

I write out of order, too. I just don't think linearly. 🙂 Works fine except for having to go revise the last couple of scenes when you do a read through and realize you did something like make a character left handed in early scenes but he was right handed in the first two scenes you wrote - which were the last two scenes of the book and one in the middle... lol. I'm writing my whole series out of order, actually. I am writing them from the beginning, but I am also working on the last ten books and random books in the middle as well. I need a really good story bible. Or a wiki...

Thanks, Karen--glad to hear it. Hope the suggestions help!

Why, Laura, don't let Orly and I freak you out. Pay no attention to the knocking on the wall. Heh heh heh. All kidding aside, I wrote parts of the fourth Surf City Mystery, Pennies For Her Eyes, out of order and for me it was a mistake. I agree with you, reluctantly. I wish i could write out of order.

I always revise on a print copy. I know some people who will print and bind it to actually BE a book but for me it's easier in a 3-ring binder. I revise long-hand and write out whole paragraphs or new chapters then slip those into the binder in the right spot.

Try reading it on an e-reader (I save my ms as a pdf then open it in iBooks on my iPad). It's amazing what you'll find doing a beta read in that form as well.

JMC, That's how Orly does it, too!

You're both freaking me out! The only thing that freaks me out more is Jenny's process of writing out of order. *shudders*
