We like Swiss cheese! I write my stories exactly the way you describe it - bits and pieces first and fill them in later. For the rough draft you only need to put a comment (or note) in between the pieces that are written saying something like 'Bodie argues with Cowley here" or 'Doyle gets in trouble talking to a snitch') We just want to know that you have an idea of where the story is going. So word count and a sort of outline for the bits you haven't quite figured out yet. Does that help?

Enjoy your shopping!
