Talk about your creative process.
My process is a bit of a mess. I'm one of those writers who feels like they're taking dictation, so what usually happens is I'll get a scene (or a piece of a scene) for a story in my mind, and if I'm very lucky that bit will be the beginning and I can proceed semi-linearly from there -- but more often it will be from somewhere in the middle. So I get that bit down on paper or in a Scrivener document, and as I think of more scenes I write those and just keep going until it coalesces into something vaguely 'whole story' shaped, and then I cobble it all together into a fic.
And I always have a ton of different stories going like this at once, so it's... chaotic, and it takes me a while to finish anything long. (Or anything period, if I'm honest).
