Charlie March
Literary editor & writer
I have a BA in Filmmaking & Screenwriting, as well as an MA in Creative Writing from Edinburgh Napier University.
I started The Plottery in early 2022 and have since edited, coached and worked with 80+ writers on a 1:1 basis, as well as hundreds more through workshops and online courses.
My expertise is in character-driven and deep thematic developmental feedback, and I’ve got a keen eye for strengthening prose and pushing its boundaries to create interesting and unique narrative styles.
I’m also a traditionally published non-fiction author of Finish Your First Novel: A No-Bull Guide to Actually Completing Your First Draft (under my previous penname: Char Anna).

I was just as lost as you might be right now. Writer’s block, impostor syndrome, perfectionism, fear of failure, you name it.
🤔
I thought structure and outlining was what I needed, but that wasn’t quite it.
😎
So, I experimented and I finished 2 full drafts without routine in 1 year, while working and studying full-time.

It didn’t have a thing to do with what most writing advice tells you. It was very simple. I taught myself to adore writing as wildly and innocently as when I was a child. And I want to teach you how to do the same.
Novel Plotting Academy is the most streamlined outlining course out there, crafted to help you focus on the important parts of pre-work.
You start from the heart of your story, then build out your character. Once it’s time to outline, your plot will come together easier than expected.
Most students finish their outline in just a few hours.
The best part of this course?
We don’t only work with theory and analysis, but you’ll actually see me create two original stories with you from scratch: We’ll put together everything from the premise, the main characters, a thorough story outline, and even a break-down of the first 3 chapters.
