Alynia! Are you not Ambassador Bren of the UFP and Deep Space Horizon? Star Trek RPGer extraordinaire?
Alas I played so many different characters in that game I don't remember Othlan and Dol -- please refresh my memory. Originally those two characters were in a friend's novel I was beta-reading, and she graciously let me borrow their names. (Also stole the name Dol for a character in my next series, and he is a piece of work.)

I think the raw version was in the giant bunny hutch where I throw all dream fragments and baby ideas. There they grow and interbreed and generally misbehave until they get too loud to ignore. This specific idea? I was contemplating Innsmouth as a suitable next destination for Sean and Company, and deep dark secrets broke the glassy surface of my ponders, as they always do in the waters around that town.

I open current file. I drink much Diet Coke. I type junk until the junk gets interesting and less junkulent. Amazingly, this almost always happens.

I'll pass on more ancient wisdom, this time from Lord Krishna: You have a right to work. You don't have a right to the fruits of work. Meaning: The writing itself is all you control. [Okay, that and submitting the writing, possibly to the point of insane persistence.] The money, adulation, movie rights, etc, are in other people's hands.

Right now I've sharpened up a whole toolchest of chisels and picks and am chipping it to gravel bit by bit. Bit by bit. Bit by bit. Also falling back on ancient wisdom imparted to Plato by Socrates: Dude, get it down, then get it right.
