I use outlines to...organize what's already there? Usually that will tell me what is missing and what I need to write to find out. When I'm further in I start making scene lists for chapters and sequence lists for sections, and rearranging them as needed. Then when a scene or sequence is done I highlight it in green. It's v. satisfying to see an all-green outline at the end!
2020 has largely sucked as far as that kind of progress is concerned, but now that the winter solstice has come, I'm into my favorite creative season, so I hope to play some catch-up on the current project.
