That fork in the road between plotting everything out or pantsing it...

I had to pick between planning my whole novel ahead of time or just writing by the seat of my pants. I went with pantsing and now I'm 30,000 words into a story that has three main characters who all have the same name by accident. Has anyone else made a choice like that and regretted it?

30,000 words in and your characters share a name, that’s not pantsing that’s full-on nudist writing.

Naked writing is the only way for me, keeps things honest and raw.

Planning saved me from that exact mess three times already.
