I write like I've been possessed by my characters. I get a vague story idea, or a specific scene, or a single line of dialogue, I start writing wherever the first word begins and then I just go.

I plot the absolutely zero anything ever. Most I have is some reminders of things I wrote earlier on in the story so I won't forget by the end or write inconsistencies. If I have a finished idea in my head, my brain does not think it's necessary to write it anymore so I have to keep myself in suspense as well until the very end! lmao

For the same reason, I also write in order. That is, in the order you guys get the fic when I post it. So if there's flashbacks or time's out of sorts, I write that as it appears as well, not chronologically. Only very, very occasionally will I skip maybe 3 ending paragraphs of a scene to write the next one when inspiration is so intense it bugs me, but you could literally read the story along as I write it.

I also edit very little at the end. I usually just go through for spelling, occasionally edit a line here or there, but it's always minor. My brain sort of ejaculates these words onto the doc and then I post that to ao3. Have fun with the mental image of that 😂😂😂😂
