Have you ever been writing, totally emersed in your character(s), and they do something that surprises you? I love moments like that. And because I like the surprises my character(s) can offer, I'm a terrible plotter. I have the framework for a story (and usually the ending) but other details, their journey...not so much.
That's also why I get frustrated when stories don't translate well from my brain to paper. Can you tell I'm in that kind of a pickle right now? I think I have a decent storyline, and it's not working out. It's the execution, or the voice -- something is wrong. I really need to invent a tape recorder for my mind.
