I'm in order 98% of the time. It just works better for me. The rare times I have written out of order it's been a struggle for me. Generally if I get stuck on a story I look at the scene I'm stuck on, see if I can plausibly cut / combine it with another more interesting scene and then move on. So far, every 'stuck' scene has turned out to be one that I didn't actually need in the story after all. Which is cool!
I've done really well this week. Not as many words as I wanted but I think I just found the end of my current book. It's going to be short, between 36K and 45K, depending on if I do a final chapter for each of my three POV characters, but that's okay. Stuff is happening, romance is blooming and I may yet get my lesbian wedding in there. *cheers*
Then I need to edit one of the novels I finished last month based on beta feedback, get that out, create another collection of short stories, get that out, do my online class homework (writing short stories because I just don't think I do it very well), and figure out what story to write next. *laughing groan* Always too many things to do at one time. Good luck on your next story!
