My professor insisted I outline every scene before drafting, but it killed my flow for a solid month.

I ditched the rigid plan and just wrote a messy first draft of my fantasy novel, which actually got me past chapter three. Anyone have a better method for plotters who get stuck?

Totally get that. It's like needing a GPS for every trip versus just knowing the general direction and figuring it out. Sometimes you just gotta start driving.

Just started walking, found the path eventually.

Yeah, but you don't drive on a path, @ivan_murphy80.
