I am so proud of the 101 plots that I’ve written over the last 28 years. Often regular customers chat to us afterwards and refer fondly to various themes that they’ve been on, and ask when they were. As all my friends know I have a memory like a sieve, so I thought it would be a great idea to put the list on our website as a ready-referral for interested sleuths.
