When I have a chapter finished, I jot down who the viewpoint characters are, what they are wearing, what happened in the chapter. So as I go along, I outline each book as I write it. I never outline ahead of the writing, but after the writing is done. That keeps the creative side of my brain in control of the writing. And the real reason I do that is to keep track of what I have already done. And what a character is wearing. And so on. It also helps my creative mind see the patterns in the book as I write.
I love this idea; especially writing it on paper instead of electronically capturing. Writing something out by hand seems to add more weight to the information
