Not sure what type of a writer you are, but for me, the stories just pour out in to the paper. Plans? Pfft. I rather just get this...
Stop right there. Ok, maybe write that first chapter, perhaps another, but stop there. You will redo it soon.
These days, I spend months in preparation, reading books, gathering info, tasting the subject. Then I put it on the board, all the acts, all the scenes. Then, I write.
But it does not really stop there. The hard part is to admit that you are not ready after your skull is empty and all the chapters are there on the screen. Usually, you end up writing the same book more than once. In my case, in more than one language. Which is great, since I see it getting better. Meaning, I will have to redo much of the first version.
Take the time. Take it, and redo. There are many stories that have been screwed up by the need to finish. The good news is, that it really will be epic in the end. No need to worry about that.
