Yeah, I'd suggest you stop trying to be synonymous--words are good at it, but it's not the sort of thing that comes naturally to actual people.
(And, you know, what they said above.) I'm actually mildly curious: is "writing a 5000 word outline" contrary to the spirit of NaNoWriMo? It seems like everyone I know who's doing it is taking the approach "write the next N words each day until it's done" as opposed to, say, the more typical approaches to writing a novel.
