Writer's Fallout Shelter

This is exactly why I avoid outlining. I am easily bored, once everything's mapped out and I know where it's going. I have to discover the story as I go, just as I would if I were reading it. The only thing that helps me is to dive in and write by the seat of my pants - to take notes as I go to ensure that I don't change little details (names, eye color, favorite foods, locations, dates, facts) along the way, once they're established.

Try it some time. If that's even more uncomfortable for you than excessive planning, let me know.
