I can do it when I know exactly where I'm going, I think? At this point with this novella, it's less charting the course than just following the nice yellow line I painted for myself two months ago.
This is much reduced, though, from the one 14-hour, 13,300-word day I had back in 2004 or so where I finished the novel I was working on because I'd go to do something else and just kept coming back to the keyboard. I sprained my writerbrain for something like four months doing that and have Learned My Lesson.
