I know of the advantages of outlining a story beforehand, and if that helps a writer, then go for it. But in all honesty, I've never done it. Oh, I have a general idea in my head about an idea, characters, and where the story's going, but even that can shift and change as I work. I suspect I may have to do an outline for a book that I keep working on and dropping, as opposed to the short stories that make up the bulk of my work.
That makes sense. A short story is typically much more simple. Longer stories seem to have a tipping point where they become too complex to 'one shot'. (I think this also might roughly line-up with where they become too complicated to adapt into a normal movie length screenplay, but that's a tune from another opera).
