After not doing much all week, I did much better today. Finished a chapter for my Roman (the bad guy from the tv show Life) fanfic for which I had to rewrite a few paragraphs and add a couple. Also began the next chapter on my POTC AR, both fics combined however did not amount to more than 1000 words ... and still no progress on my big one (the Avenger fanfic) ...
I usually start with an idea, then I get ideas for events and often that goes into a more detailed outline. However, I seldom outline the end - I need to see how the characters are doing. On occasion I need a new plan, when I realise that an event could not take place because my protagonists develop in a different direction. Often I just have later events outlined very roughly and go through the scenes in my mind to figure out possibilities. So I guess my outlines are mostly unfinished skeletons that still need to be fleshed out a bit :D
