And it may be tomorrow. I just had a twist in 'Forgive Those Who Trespass'* that may annihilate a good part of the plot I had planned. Or maybe not. I have to sit back and figure this out before I continue.

*OMFG, Harry, you were supposed to act stupid! Not all reasonable-like! 'A Potion Named Desire' Harry is the reasonable one, not you! Stop interrupting my plot!

Ouch. Sorry about that. That's part of the reason I try to have a plot that's solid in the outline but vague in detail; trying to put too many specific moments in throws me off.

The last time I tried that I ended up wandering all over the place. I seem to be the kind of writer who needs to plan out exactly what's going to happen, otherwise I lose my pacing.

Of course, what's happening isn't what I planned, but as long as I *have* a plan - even if it is a repeatedly re-written one - and know what's going to happen in the next chapter at least, I can keep on track :)

Seems to work for you, though - I love your chaptered fics.
