    Default Just started Black House ... question

    So I just started Black House two days ago. I had meant to read it right after I finished the DT series, but I had loaned it to a friend and .. well .. nuff said. So I took a detour and read both Desperation and Dreamcatcher while I was waiting.

    So now I have BH back and just started. Question : Does anyone know exactly how SK and PS write these books, like the methodology they use to do so? Like I am wondering if PS writes a chapter and then SK writes a chapter, or if there is a different process. I am in Chapter 2 and it appears very apparent to me that PS wrote chapter #1 and SK wrote chapter #2. So it makes me wonder if they just alternate. Also, I know that SK does not outline his books, so I wonder if they have sync'ed up on the story so they know what they are writing, or do they just let it ebb-and-flow going back and forth between the authors?

    Are there any articles where the two talk about their process?

    Ms Mod??


    Thanks,

    They've both agreed not to reveal who wrote which sections, but the process is that they each write to what they think is a good stopping point and then hand it off to the other back/forth until the book is done. They do discuss the general direction of the book before they start but it isn't plotted out per se.

    ...which is the true essence of a team effort....
