I pretty much brought up a document, used the numbered list function to make an empty list counting to 24, and started filling in things as I thought of them. Of course, I started out with putting in things that I believe will happen, based on what we knew at the time about Volume 7 and what happened at the end of Volume 6. Usually, when I end up staring at the incomplete list, not sure what else could happen, I start putting in things that I hope for and random things that could maybe happen.

I've pretty much stopped putting "New Grimm" on the list because we see new Grimm every volume, which makes it a freebie.

Once the list is done, I start trying to figure out which squares I wanna put everything in, while using the Strikethrough formatting to mark out the ones I've already put on the board. Admittedly, I do sometimes put related things in spots that line up, but it's not exactly cheating because you never know which rows or diagonals will completely fill in. For example, I put "Weiss' mother appears" and "Weiss' mother's name is Willow" directly diagonal from each other. There's still a chance that only one of those will get marked, and-- hmm... I think I accidentally made a great lineup for once. Oops. Some squares end up in weird or unexpected places, though, because you start getting more restricted in your options as you fill it in.
