You've just described my last year of writing minus the notes. The end result was often as much a surprise to me as my readers.

Ha! I never really do notes, either - but this started to get very complicated. (Why did I think I could handle world-building!?) It'll be a surprise to me if I even finish it. ;)

" ... except I now need a plot. "

No, you really don't. Listen to 'bees' (and me) and just write while it's coming to you.

Not saying I need a whole plot written out, but I do need a plot point - and the notes are good to keep track of what's coming to me when I don't have time to write it. Different writing styles for different people, I guess! :)
