Which can be good and bad. Since I have flexibility, and this is what I do for fun, I let myself write what I feel like writing. When I don't feel like writing, I outline, or I edit. I'm working on keeping my eye on the prize -- the prize being finishing a story and getting it out there so I can move on to the next. Working on it. :)J.R.

It's getting to 2 in the morning and realising I've only managed to write two lines the whole night. :)<br /><br />Mia, try switching to another idea for a short while. I find writing gets less fun when I get stuck in the mindset of having to work on a particular idea.

You know you need to get it done, but the pressure makes you ignore the work until it's the night before everything's done and you're staring at 56 unedited pages.Elisa DeLanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06466740168508428362noreply@blogger.com
