This Particular Surge is Actually Working

/ Tracy Abell

I’m trusting my gut on this one. Knew I couldn’t move forward until I’d resolved the dynamics between two characters.

I LOVE feeling confident about what needs to be done, and am documenting this moment here for those moments in the future when I’m wallowing in doubt.

    • Thanks, De. And I’d love to share my confidence but I’m betting you already have your own well to draw upon. Take a moment to be quiet and still, and think back to one of those moments when you knew exactly what needed to be done with one of your stories. I know it’s happened. For me, those are the times when I really and truly know that I’m a writer.
      You have those moments, too; you just need to remember them.

  15. I’m kind of stuck in in-between land right now…I have an idea of what would fix the story, but I’m not confident enough yet to charge in. Or maybe I’m just lazy (heh)…but I know what you mean, and I’m glad you’ve found it!!

    • It’s more difficult when it’s a charge in and fix situation. Mine was along the lines of these characters are interacting but it doesn’t feel right. I had to figure out the basis of their friendship.
      But it’s such an affirmation for me when I think about the fact that I KNOW what’s wrong and that it needs to be fixed in order for the story to work.
      Hope you get unstuck soon.
