O Is For… Opening! — 6 Comments

  1. A huge thing for me, whether I want to write or clean or garden, is to not over think things. For years, I have stared at a crumbling little retaining wall around one of my flower beds. I doubted still having the strength to fix it myself and kept putting off on the expenditure. Then yesterday, I got down on my kneeling pad and just started digging. Unbelievably, half the perimeter has been fixed after a mere forty-five minutes! Sigh… Excellent writing advice, by the way.

  2. I can totally relate with you! I often find that jobs which I procrastinate get finished a lot faster than I assume they will. šŸ™‚ Thank god for 30/30.

    I can't wait to see the new area that you spruced up!

  3. The important part is to start the wriitng, not where in the story. Sometimes, when you get a better feel for the characters and plot- it comes easier

  4. It's a puzzlement. Write a great first sentence, write three chapters that hook your reader, which can block the progress of a novel. I have finally learned that rewriting can fix all things, so don't let such things keep you from starting your work.
