And yet I've currently got a 62-page scarf on my hard drive. It's such a bizarre way of writing. How on earth do you Knitters do it?
1. Outline. Sometimes works, sometimes makes the writing really boring. 2. Start with the initial scene and see where it takes me, or how it takes me to whatever the next one will be. Usually, a fairly entertaining way to knit a scarf.
I'm finding that the more I write fanfiction, the more I want to be entertained along the way. I want the surprise, too.
And, I've always thought that your description of your process sounded like a highly entertaining experience. More power to you, for being able to create something that's ultimately cohesive. All your stories are.
