Are you a discovery (academic) writer?

I always tought I was a bad writer ause I did not outline. Recently I took Brandon Sanderson’s writing course online and I found out that this is actually a good thing (or at least a possibility). Its called discovery writing. Check out this thread on the writing stack exchange. I’d also encourage you to follow Sanderson’s class, even if you dont write fiction and *only* write academic papers.
