Hitting the wall

Feb 19, 2009 14:58

I've hit the first wall in the WIP. I know what happens next, so it's not a "oh my God I just ran out of plot" wall. It's more of a "well, hell, how do I do this" wall. I'm at the "meet cute" portion of my story where the two protags realize the other's existence for the first time and ... well ... it's sort of kicking my butt. I know from past ( Read more... )

Papa Del's? :)

Happy birthday!!

That does sound like a tricky spot with the protags. Best of luck.

Thanks!

Yeah, it's a tricky spot. Actually, it's not as rough as I thought it was going to be. I kept wondering how they'd run into each other without being contrived, and then it turned out I had inadvertantly set things up. Love it when the subconscious mind works its magic. :)
