Well that scene is absolutely the best! It was really the perfect way to convey so much history and emotion in a single image.

That makes sense with outlining the plot for either type of work to keep from getting off track. That has to take some discipline, especially when you get hit with inspiration or have a scene you just really want to zoom in on.
Even with fanfic, endings seem like the hardest thing to nail down. Plus it's so easy to over-focus on something or change direction midway though a story. 🤦♀️
So moral of the story = Outlines? 😂
Haha. Always outlines! That's the moral! ;D
That said, dialogue is my strength and yes, that and more generally "character" tends to get me excited about a project and at various (all!) stages of a project I'll be writing little snippets of dialogue here and there as it comes to me. Most make it into the final in one form or another.
