I actually believe outlining before beginning kills invention, unless you're the genius who has the whole novel in your head. "Not knowing," I love to say, is the key to the journey of both surprise and inevitability that Flannery O'Connor advises in _Mystery and Manners_. xo ~ Mary
HEA would be on the top of my list and be a reality for all living beings. To do this, I think love has to be taught to all people as the most important thing in life. And that parents would have to love their children in every possible way every day. Maybe then HEA would be in reach. I am looking for that day. It seems impossible judging from our history, but I think we will evolve past the things that are holding us back and get there.

Looking forward to more from this awesome blog in the coming year! And you're not alone, I'm definitely a pantser too. Haha.
