Date: 2014-02-23 10:57 pm (UTC)My first NANO draft turned out almost utterly unusable, because the story I was trying to write and the story I ended up writing were two different things, and trying to shove them together resulted in some sort of unnatural FrankenDraft.
(I think I might be able to do something with the concept and setting, but I'll have to split the main character in two... I think the two stories are compatible but not being led by the same character.)
If I do any planning ahead of time, it'll be rough outlines. Usually only a scene or two in advance. Mostly because I don't /know/ what'll happen until I write it. I've tried to figure things out in advance but it doesn't really work out. I know where I'm at now, and where I might, eventually, end up. In between? No clue.
I think I've started writing beginning to end, if for no other reason than it's easier to keep the character development in my head that way.
