It is a wild experience when suddenly the story or the characters change course, or fill in the blanks. I am an 'outliner' however the first ms I wrote was 'winging it'. Personally, the outline for me is just to keep the idea alive, so I don't forget where I intended to go. But, as they say in Pirates of the Caribbean... "they're just guild lines really." Once you get through each scene, the story and characters tend to have a mind of their own. :)<BR/>Enjoy the process!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1124066428536267360.post-90560475913449943462008-03-14T16:08:00.000-06:002008-03-14T16:08:00.000-06:00Wow, your getting into mental gyrations here.
