- Are you more of an outliner or discovery writer? Something in between? What do you do before writing, and then during? #WritingPromptMay 3, 2025 14:20
- My drafts are pure discovery. After the first draft, I outline between drafts to plan and correct.
- Outline. Write. Re-outline. Rewrite. All steps interspersed with long notes in which I discover what I'm trying to say.
- Discovery. I can never outline a story, my mind drops me a prompt and I have to figure out how to get to that point and then how to get from that to a non-cliché conclusion.
