ARGH.

Okay, so I've got this scene, and suddenly this other scene makes more sense, right?

Except the other scene only makes more sense in my head rather than on the screen, and both of them are going to require a massive edit job in order to make actual sense.

*headdesk*
*facepalm*

WHYWHYWHY do I do these things to myself?

I tell myself it's because I don't outline. And then I ask myself "Why outline when you could be actually writing?" And I answer that question thusly:

BECAUSE OF SITUATIONS JUST LIKE THIS, DUMBASS.

On the plus side, one of these scenes just got a massive upswing in dramatic tension--or it will once I properly edit it. Win?

Been there, done that. But, I've found that using the comments thingy in Word is much more beneficial than an actual outline. At least it is to me. I'm constantly making notes on things I don't want to forget as I'm writing, constantly referencing back to it as I progress. I love Word.

Oh, hey...

I'LL DO THAT.

I completely forgot I could do that--and Word doesn't count comments for word count. WIN.

THANK YOU.
