For the writers on the board here, I'm wondering what your process is (assuming you have one).
For me I've always plotted everything out well in advance for short stories, but my blog is very much an "inspiration strikes" thing where it all fall out at once and then I take a day to touch it up/add jokes. I would call the stories mostly failures because while they're written, no one has ever read them (all sent back to me). I don't consider the blog a failure because the point is to be funny, and despite having all of eight readers, it makes me laugh.
I recently accidentally started writing what might be a longer story, and right now I'm just kind of letting it come out and lead me where it will, with hopes that I can fill it out later with more detail/humor.
