Sometimes, I write what I want to happen next on paper (usually, I'm at work at the time, and can't get to my story files), and then type it up when I feel like it, editing as I go.
Other times, I just type the ideas as they come, then I read through four or five times to edit myself before I send what I've typed to the beta(s).
But no matter which method I use, I ALWAYS have to mull things over in my head for days--sometimes weeks or months--at a time before putting anything to paper/keyboard.
