Usually, when I write, I kind of wing it. I have a rough idea of what I want to do and how I want it to end, but everything that happens in between is uncharted territory. While this usually works out well for me, it's a disaster when it comes to NaNoWriMo.
I want to write a more detailed outline to help me actually win this time!
If it helps, I'm redoing my old Island of Mystery story from a few years ago.

Hmmmm...I'm trying to remember speach class
Okay, it's basicly set up like a paragraph. Though I don't know if it helps for a story...

I just tend to wing it. That's why most of my stories are one-shots of less than 2000 words.
Still, if I can keep focused...

I do write one, though sometimes I skimp on details or forget something. For example, my current fic has been ignored partially because of a plot hole-writer's block combo I forgot to outline...

If you're gonna do an outline, it's best to just speak out what you're thinking and write it down. When you do both, you have a better chance of remembering things later on.
If that doesn't help, outline it in a comic sort of way, panel by panel, and then write each panel as a detailed line or paragraph.
