I have no idea how much this is related to writing non-sequentially.
... I need to have the whole book in front of me in order to do a final revision, but if I had to write out of sequential order, I'd never finish <wry g>. So. I don't think it's related to non-sequential writing.
How much of the book do you have to have outlined in order to write non-sequentially? I don't outline at all; I have the ending, I know the people and the culture (more or less), and I write -- so out of sequence, even if I -think- I'm going to hit key scenes -- would be disaster for my particular approach.
