It is such an honor for me to host the a-maz-ing Susan May Warren. If it were not for Susan, I would not be published. She and Rachel Hauck poured their experiences and knowledge into me, and I will forever be thankful.
Here’s a brief summary of her new release Troubled Waters:
He can have anything he wants…except the woman he loves. She says she wouldn’t date him if he was the only man on a deserted island. Her bluff is about to be called…
Susan is discussing one of my favorite subjects today. Let’s listen in…
Want to plot a story? Start with the What If?
Readers often ask me…how do you come up with your story idea?
It’s easy—I just ask: WHAT IF?
What If you were stuck on a deserted island with someone you hated (but secretly loved?)
Or, What If you asked someone to marry you…but they had a secret identity?
Or even…What If you thought someone you loved was dead…but the person closest to you know she wasn’t, and kept that from you?
Those are the what-ifs that seeded my latest novel, Troubled Waters.
Once I have the what-if, I start noodling on the idea:
So…who gets stuck on the island, Susie?
Maybe it’s a billionaire. His yacht sinks and he’s cast ashore on a desert island with…whom?
Oh…how about his secretary. No, that won’t work. How about his former secretary, the one he’s had a massive crush on for a decade…but could never pursue.
Except now they’ve parted ways. And why…oh, SECRETS! Secrets are a great way to push people apart!
And maybe she refuses to date him because of a couple things he did to hurt her.
And she’s hurt him, too…like dating his best friend.
I’ll put a few other people on the boat to add tension…like a former love interest of the billionaire. And a guy who flirts with the former secretary. And a couple others who provide comic relief and truth nuggets.
Oh, I like it! So…now I come to the fun part.
CASTING.
I like to cast my stories early, so I get a look at the people I’m working with. Somehow their appearance helps me dig deeper to create a personality. It’s a technique I use called The Story Equation (I actually wrote a book about it), but the essence of the characterization is the Dark Moment Story of the past that defines the character—his lies, fears, wounds, flaws and desires.
I create a casting board for all my stories with the main characters, sub characters and essential locations.
Here’s the casting board for Troubled Waters.
Main Characters:
Sierra Rose (the former secretary)
Ian Shaw (the billionaire)
Dex (Ian’s best friend and hot guy who flirts with Sierra)
Noelly (Former love interest for Ian…of course she still wants him)
Vanessa & Hayes (Friends on the boat who further the plot)
The last thing I do before I write the story (after I figure out the characters and the plot) is to create the story summary. This is the What-if gelled into a nice marketing blurb. I tape it to the top of my computer screen (not literally, but you know what I mean) and use it to keep me on track in the story.
Here’s the blurb for Troubled Waters, (Montana Rescue series, out now!)
Billionaire Ian Shaw can have everything he wants–except a happy ending. Or at least that’s what it feels like with his fortune recently liquidated, his niece, Esme, still missing, and the woman he loves refusing to speak to him. In fact, he doubts she would date him even if they were stranded on a deserted island.
Despite her love for Ian, Sierra Rose knows he has no room in his life for her as long as the mystery of his missing niece goes unsolved. The only problem is, Sierra has solved it, but a promise to Esme to keep her whereabouts secret has made it impossible to be around Ian.
When the PEAK chopper is damaged and Sierra lacks the funds to repair it, Ian offers a fundraising junket for large donors on his yacht in the Caribbean. But the three-day excursion turns into a nightmare when a rogue wave cripples the yacht and sends the passengers overboard. Shaken up and soaked to the bone, Ian finally has a chance to test his theory when he and Sierra do indeed find themselves washed up on a strange, empty shore.
It will take guts and gumption for the PEAK team to rescue the duo. But it will take a miracle to rescue Ian and Sierra’s relationship.
So, if you’re crafting a book—start with the WHAT IF! Then, go write something brilliant!
Susan May Warren is the USA Today best-selling, RITA award-winning author of over sixty novels.
Growing up in Minneapolis and attending the U of MN, I learned to love city life, although I’m a woodsy girl at heart. Or maybe I’m an adventurer — having lived and traveled all over the world, including Siberia Russia as a missionary for eight years. Probably that’s why my characters can’t sit still, and seem to get into one scrape after another — they’re too much like me! I love God, my family, my country, my church, and feel privileged every day to be able to write stories.
Here’s Stop #24
You can order Susan’s books on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Lifeway, and CBD or at your local bookstore!

I love seeing Susan’s casting board and her story summary that turns into a stellar blurb and then another great book. I’m a Susan groupie too who owes her a lot although I’m still learning and growing. Thanks for this great post. It’s just in time for me to utilize some of these key ideas, and I will!

I am thankful for Seekerville bloggers and authors. I wouldn’t have known about this hunt, nor be discovering new to me authors along thecway. I have Susan’s story equation book sitting in my kobo waiting to be read. I currently don’t have a favourite genre in fiction – just an apetite for solid writing.
Author

Author
Susan May Warren is A-maz-ing, Karen. And I really like her character board, too. Thanks so much for stopping by!
I think my favorite genre is historical fiction. It changes with my mood though. 😉
Author
Rachel, I understand that about mood. 🙂 Sometimes I want something light like a rom-com and sometimes I want deeper, like women’s fiction. As long as I care about the characters, I’ll read almost anything…I can even remember reading the back of cereal boxes when I was a kid. 🙂
Oh, and my favorite genre is any type of Christian fiction. I don’t care for fantasy or speculative as much, but I really love anything that’s well written.
Author
Karen, I don’t usually read fantasy or speculative, but there are a few authors who write them very well and I’ve read them. Jim Rubart writes great books. And I like the retelling of the fairy tales. 🙂 But I agree that it must be well written! Thanks for stopping by,
I love your books, and I was super happy that you did a follow up novella to Justice Delayed. Romantic Suspense is probably my favorite genre with historical romance or rom com as backups. Actually, anything in the romance genre (minus Amish or fantasy/sci fi) or mystery/suspense (minus horror or paranormal) are my favorites.
Author
Thank you, Sarah! I’m so glad you enjoyed Revenge! It was fun to write and I felt like I hadn’t quite finished Andi’s story. 🙂

The blog post is awesome! I love seeing the character board all laid out, and how you make up the little marketing blurb. I would say my favorite genre is either (though these are rather opposites) Historical Fiction OR Christian Romantic Comedy
