I have never tried to write out of order! The thought scared me a little!

Calvin Westbrook (calwbrook88) | 149 comments Really? ah well I guess we all do things differently. :)

I don't think I would ever get any writing done if I did that, because of the way my brain works. :)

I have added chapters and thoughts in later, to fill things out, but my brain is a very this is the order you do it cause that is how you do it, kind of place.

I always edit out of order though!
