When you write, do you proceed from point A to B to C and so on or do you skip around, writing scenes out of order?
I mostly proceed from A to B to C. If I skip around, I tend to get lost. Usually, when I want to skip around, it means that I'm starting from the wrong place in the story or chapter and need to reconsider what I'm doing. The exception is that there are a couple of long stories I'm working on for which I've written drafts of the very end of the story. I think I do that to reassure myself that there is an end point I'm aiming at.
