Some story ideas arrive fully formed, while others are just a single line waiting to grow. The Snowflake Method offers writers a systematic way to build from that one concept into a complete novel—layering plot and character iteratively, like a snowflake forming in the sky, until it becomes something beautiful.
Starting in medias res isn't about explosions or car chases—it's about emotional impact. True mastery means dropping readers into a moment that already matters, whether that's an emotional crisis, a conversation that changes everything, or a discovery that reshapes the story. It's meaningful disruption, not mindless spectacle.
