I started following your site after a Scott Myers plug a week ago, thanks for all the shared insight, I've got some catching up to do. This topic just came up with me. I finished 120 pages of fun, but not nearly enough outlining and preparation in regards to character developments was done before I started writing it. I was just so eager to write! So that story is getting a breather, but this next one is not going to see any FADE INs until I outline and Idea Test the crap out of it! "a stitch in time saves 112 pages... hehe" Great post Julie.
