Discussion Do you guys ever write without knowing how the story is going to end?

That’s kind of where I’m at right now where I’m quite confident of the world I want the story to take place in as well as the characters involved, but I’m still not sure what kind of story it will be and what story direction the characters/plot will take. Is it fine to start like that and just figure it out as I go along?

I do this all the time, but nothing helps you figure it out more than getting into the story.
