Usually by the time I get back to that place, whatever held me there in the first place has resolved itself.

Rather than write the rest of the story in linear fashion, I started writing what's-to-come on the cards, and it helped me break away from the current section I was stuck on. I found that even by putting a few bullet points on the cards, it propelled me into forward-thinking mode.<br /><br />That video...what in the world?!Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15634681223129304563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1178848256551614320.post-30023191845298533052011-03-30T20:03:00.209-05:002011-03-30T20:03:00.209-05:00Don't re-read it for the gazillionth time!

The one thing I get stuck on is going back and re-checking spelling and grammar.

I don't have that problem. I guess I...Umm... I don't have that problem. I guess I've gotten myself into the groove of Go Go Go that I don't spend much time on any one scene. I do, however, ponder scenes when I'm away from my computer until I resolve whatever's bothering me. That means actual face time with the wip is lower.Melanie Hooyengahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08781235493983907234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1178848256551614320.post-39276687378385254432011-03-30T10:52:54.364-05:002011-03-30T10:52:54.364-05:00I'm desperately trying to ignore part one, or ...I'm desperately trying to ignore part one, or I'll never get through the rewrites. Sigh, I'm already aware I still need work on the first chapter. Sometimes we just have to put it aside and let time marinate our words until something settles between the lines.

When I'm stuck on...Hahaha - I love that video!<br /><br />When I'm stuck on a particular scene, I walk away for awhile - sometimes a few minutes, sometimes an hour, sometimes a few days.
