October WIP Challenge Check-In, Day 19

[soldierwitch]

 

Hello writers! I'm rolling in for Tuesday's check-in with thoughts on plotting. I know a good portion of us are outliners instead of pantsers (as in no outline, you write by the seat of your pants), so I'd like to talk process today. Also, please take the time to answer the poll below even if you aren't up for commenting on today's check-in. I'd like to get a sense for who's interested in doing a writing sprint next week and on what day. We'll lock down a time window later. Thanks, y'all! Alright, let's get to it.

Discussion prompts

• If you're an outliner, what kind of outlines do you do? Loose with just enough detail to help direct your story or heavily detailed so you're basically just fleshing out your outline?
• If you're a pantser, what appeals to you about not having an outline?
• How do you keep track of what you want to put in your fic? Journal? Binder? Post-It notes? Note cards? What's your method of keeping up with the direction of your fic?
• How's your WIP coming?
