WIP Challenge Check-in, Day 29 -- Sunday

[linaewen]

Greetings on the first day of the last week of our March WIP Challenge! I'm serving as your cheerleader this week.

What kind of a writing day has it been today? Or, if you haven't gotten down to writing yet, how did it go yesterday?

• I thought about my fic once or twice
• I wrote
• I did some planning and/or research
• I edited
• I've sent my fic off to my beta
• I posted today!
• I'm taking a break
• I did something else that I'll talk about in a comment

For discussion, we go to the Panda:

Does knowing exactly what happens next help you actually write it, or does the writing still have to be dragged out of you kicking and screaming? Are outlines and plans generally helpful or do you work better just letting the writing take you whither it will?
