I have been getting better at constructing elaborate settings and premises but not at writing. Thinking the stuff up I love doing. Writing it down I get bored and stop. Since I learned to focus on 'feel' and character transitions I think I have gotten better at coming up with stuff. I have a couple plots that I need to adapt to not be fanfiction and a few that only need some pen going on paper to get them going. It would take me a while to explain any of them though. My two best ones are specifically designed to keep the reader guessing for awhile as the grand picture slow gets revealed.
I get bored writing things down, too. I already know the story anyway, after all...
My plotting is getting better. I don't telegraph all my punches eight chapters out now.
