I’d like to ask the opinion of some of the more experienced fic writers here. I’m working on a multi-chapter story right now which is only partially complete. I have one chapter done and ready to go, and a second is written, though it needs a second draft. But whenever I open a blank document to start the third chapter, I end up staring at a blank screen for twenty minutes before shutting it down.
I have a general outline of the story, and I know what the major plot points of the successive chapters will be, but I can’t figure out how to write them.
When you are writing a multi-chapter story, do you post each chapter as it is written, or try to have a rough version of the story written first? And how detailed are your ideas going into the story? Just a general outline, or do you have a scene by scene plan?
I would appreciate anybody and everybody’s input.
