One of the things I find that wastes time in my writing is numbering the chapters. Inevitably, some of the story threads will change during writing, which will call for the insertion, or deletion, or shifting around of chapters. It means I then have to go through them renumbering each and every one of them. on both the master script, the individual saved chapters, and the file name to each of them. This has happened to me numerous times...
For my next book, I am going to postpone the numbering of my chapters until at least the first draft is finished. They'll still have titles, but it should mean I can shift them a lot quicker than I am at the moment.
