Why wait?

Write a list of the key scenes, noting in one or two sentences (perhaps three) what happens in each. You should be able to see if it holds water from this list. It doesn't matter if you have to finesse this as you write the story, the basic trajectory of the arc is what counts.

1. Does the trajectory provide entertaining moments? (action, twists, turns and other surprises etc)
2. Does it arrive at where you want to be?

If it satisfies both requirements, you're on to something.
