Do you write linearly or do you write from different parts of the story and then string it all together?

I mostly write linearly. I start at the beginning (once I figure out where that is) and keep writing until I reach the end. The exceptions are "Faded Colors" which is a series of vignettes that I wrote and then put in order and the story I'm currently working on which will be, also, a series of vignettes. It's alien to how I normally write, so I'm a little worried about pulling it off.

I write linearly. I sometimes bring in flashbacks or remembered conversations, but my writing is still very chronological.
