I definitely connected with #1 (if I get stuck I will often stop and work on another chapter or even the ending and then go back to the chapter that was bugging me) and #7. When I write I do not write to the current trends nor to any particular audience, but have always written to please myself. <br /><br />The one that I have the most trouble with is #5, but I’m working on it : )Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5115786557639856820.post-31010126930354852672014-03-13T09:53:31.834-07:002014-03-13T09:53:31.834-07:00Kids are the ultimate distraction, aren't they...Kids are the ultimate distraction, aren't they?

If I'm not talking about the story, I get stuck. That's hard when no one knows about the story, but I've found myself talking at my hubby about it and as I'm talking say, "Oh! That's great!" and wander back to the computer to write that part... I'm not even sure he's listening. :)lissajeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10530061516614280887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5115786557639856820.post-11281985900613800302014-03-09T13:26:43.817-07:002014-03-09T13:26:43.817-07:00Thanks.
