July 8: What's your least favorite stage of writing a story? Why?

Not that it comes up a lot in the nanofic work that is my bread and butter, but filling in the intermediate details.

My muse is great at filling in the overall arc of the story and a whole bunch of great vignettes set here and there throughout it. Filling in all the gaps between them, though - that's where the "dragging ideas out of my brain with rusty razor wire" bit comes in.
