Re: Re: Re: Outline
You're just compiling the bare bones structure of the overall story arc, some of which you've already identified. You already know the beginning / "normal" for your main character. You also have an inkling of the conflict/problem your protagonist will face (day 2, premise), who or what the antagonist is that's causing the conflict (day 2, premise), his your protagonist may it may not react to the conflict (days 4 and 5, protagonist profile and background), and roughly what the turning point will l look like (climax). Put all that into a formal outline document or template of your choice.

Fill in some more info if you are so inspired and/or haven't already spent fifteen minutes on picking a format / template and compiling.

As far as how much to include in tomorrow's revision: you have two more outlining days, as well as several freebie days and brainstorming days which may be used for plotting if you choose. So no, you don't have to generate an entire detailed outline tomorrow.

Have fun,
