If you want to know more, here you go: Intro Essay
I already missed four days because I was without a computer and didn't have a hard copy of what I had already written while I was out of state.
Starting was easy, and I know where the first hump will be. When I finish the prologue, I will have to tie it into the first chapter. I have a general idea for where I want my story to go, but I'm not entirely sure how I will transition.
Anne Lamot's piece on first drafts can help anyone write.
It convinced me to just keep writing instead of getting hung up on a part, which is also known as writer's block. I never thought of just powering through a bad section of writing to get to a part that made it all worth it. In the past I would just stare at the sentences wondering why they wouldn't just work. After a few weeks of just staring at my creation, I would give up.
No more of that. Now I'll stumble through it, head first, into whatever grimace-worthy story I come up with.
