Time to change gears –– and try a new genre...
My attempt to join the popular masses in the YA (young adult) genre is chugging along (as my former critique partner "crossing over to the dark side").
This time, I've decided to change my style of writing as well and use a structured outline.
Yet I constantly find myself slipping back into old habits, where I go off on a conversational scene inside my head and regurgitate it onto the computer screen, willy-nilly, out of sequence.

And speaking of outlines, I don't even have one yet. Hah.
It's funny, it seems I've spent so much time on this project already and I'm only at 5,000 words!
Only 70,000 words more to go... egads.
