Anyone have any advice on outlining stories? Usually I just write the whole thing and change the plot in the next draft, but that doesn’t work as well for longer pieces and I just get frustrated and never finish. Any tips?

Outline a spoilery synopsis of what will happen in each chapter. Like figure out the number of chapters first on a timeline pinpoint where the beginning middle and end is. And then divide the important information being revealed between chapters
