@ Carpe Diem !
God, I hate that. Especially if I think I've come up with something genius and they're like, 'Um, no.'
Yeah, I'd rather just see where everyone else wants to go so I can fit something around that. Besides, I tend to majorly stray away from outlines, which is why I tend to dive into a story with nothing planned. And then suffer later because I have no idea what to write next
