Yesterday it felt like I had been struck by lightning when I finally realized the reason I was stuck in my current WIP. I hadn't made a character do something they needed to do, and they were sulking. To add further to my dilemma, I needed to change POV, and hadn't.
So, with my character doing what she needed to do, and my POV changed, I was able to get some writing done.
I probably should have realized this earlier, as these are the two most common reasons I get stuck. What have you found that gets you stuck in your writing?
Hope you all have a great weekend. We are off to see Trans-Siberian Orchestra's Beethoven's Last Night Tour tonight. And, maybe if it ever stops raining, we can have a meal out on the new deck (now fully stained and cured!) See you all Monday!
I get stuck on ONE SENTENCE in dialouge. I wander around talking to myself saying things like, "He wouldn't say it like that...it be more like...no...that's not it either." So frustrating.
ReplyDeleteGood job getting "unstuck" LOL!
