Here's something about me: I don't like plotting for a novel. I prefer to do the plotting inside my head. I know that it's a good idea to write it down, to get the facts on paper so you have a stronger novel.
In November 2011, I wrote my first NaNoWriMo novel. My goal was 30,000 words. I completed it, revised it a few months later, and now I'm ready to get 5 free copies of my novel from CreateSpace. But the thing is... I thought of the story idea while cleaning out the computer room. I didn't write down any ideas for the story, I just thought of the basic storyline and started writing.
Currently, I have a cool story idea in my head, and months ago I started to plot it... until NaNoWriMo "got in the way." And then I stopped plotting it. I want to get back to it... but every time I think about doing it, I don't do it. I feel kind of pressured to have to plot it before writing it.
Do you hate plotting?
