I am having a hard time writing this shit chronologically. I think I'm just going to write a zillion scenes and then shuffle them til the story comes out. That's a valid writing technique, innit? Because the "what happens next to move the plot" is where I got stuckeded.

yes! i never write in order. i just glue it all together at the end.

That's what I do! I don't know if it works for everyone, but it works for me. a program that helps you move blocks of text around (I use Scrivener on my mac) is great for organizing stuff after.

That's totally a valid writing technique.

That's how I write. I'm fond of skipping ahead and getting out a scene I'm thinking of.

That was I was doing with my last project. It was working really well, I just got stymied by lack of time.
