Well, half my motivation behind Oz Daily was hoping other people would write fic based upon the pics I was posting, so yeah, I get it. :D
And the one I reeeeaaally like, 'cos it's just the coolest idea everrrrrr, would be as much work as Someone Like You.
Okay, now you're just torturing me. O_O
What you say about writing in order makes a lot of sense and helps confirm that that route is probably the better way to go. I guess it's worked for me so far, so I should stick with what I'm comfortable doing.
I'm very dialogue-driven, these days. Plenty of my drafts are just pages of dialogue with 'ADD BLOCKING' notes all over them.
I think one of the reasons why I underestimate my stories' lengths is that most of my fic tends to be heavy on dialogue and not particularly atmospheric. The scenario in my head might play out in a thousand words, but when I actually type it up as people talking to one another in a realistic manner, a lot more words are necessary. And writing out just the dialogue first sounds like a good idea, one that I should probably try! For every story I write, I have to go back and do word searches for variations of "slowly/quickly, turned/looked/smiled" because I overuse them, which I might not do if I'm adding them all in at once later.
I would like to teach everyone to write exactly the sort of pornography that I want to read.

I would happily take that class! Sign me up!
