The blog post that became a short story that became a novella that is almost a novel was a lot of fun to work on today. I wrote a scene that needs to be inserted into the narrative like 15000 words ago, because I realized that it’s part of a narrative thread that needs more to happen, so that it can payoff a little closer to where I am in the narrative, now.
This is a significant step for me as a writer, because I used to think that I had to write in chronological order for the first draft, and could only do this sort of insertion in the second draft. It seems silly to say it out loud because OBVIOUSLY that’s not how it is, but I’m saying it out loud for someone else who is reading this, who has been laboring under the same silly and arbitrary rules that I was until about three hours ago.

I find it very, VERY hard to write outside of chronological order so props to you for making the leap!

Thanks for the advice.  That has been a hang up of mine as well for quite some time.
