      I have an important question folks. I have my own LN that I'm about to send on their submission page. But I have a problem, which is their plot outline requirement.

      I know how to make one, it's just I am conflicted on what format should I use. Should do it in essay-style or bullet form? Which is the best or most probable format?Thanks in advance :)

        Hopefully this advice from last month will be of assistance:

        @Rahul-Balaggan said in [CONTEST OVER] JNC Original Light Novel Contest:

        There is no "standard" for the outline. As the author you will determine what should be there. What characters count as "major", how far to go into the story, and any other information you feel makes your work shine.

        That is one of the main things here. You are writing this outline to show your work has potential, and that you have an idea of where the story is going and how you will get there.

        You have 10,000 extra words to make a sales pitch. Use those 10,000 words in a way that will leave you the writer satisfied.

        Stay shiny, y'all.
