I can't use outlines for anything. So usually I start out and just see where things go from there. I don't decide ahead of time how my novels are going to end, because that ruins it for me! I just let things happen as they do.
I jot down ideas and little segments I want in my story in my notebook. Sheets of paper can get lost easily so I find a notebook is more handy (unless you lose the whole notebook).
I like to type my story on the computer when I'm trying to put together the events or am planning on getting a whole bunch of the story written. However, I always save my story on the computer, my USB stick, and I print out pieces to paste/staple in my notebook. That way, if my computer freezes or something, I have backup access to my story.
