I hate when I get stuck. And what I hate even more is when no one helps me.
I guess I really can't get mad at anyone...and I'm not, but I am frustrated. And it's really holding me up...
So, I decided to do a self-edit of Caroline before I have someone else look at it. It's 32 chapters (including a prologue and epilogue) and right now I'm on ch 13. I've been on this chapter for a couple of weeks now. I've tried to move on to later chapters and even the other books in the series, but this particular scene (that isn't very important; well it is, but I can write around it) is blocking me. I feel like I can't move on until I get this right.
Maybe I just need to focus on something else until I can resolve this. Sometimes, the more I force something, the longer it takes to actually 'fix' it.
Another project that is close to my heart is Touch. I'm not exactly sure how long I've been working on this book, but I'm on ch 28. I'm aiming for 32-35 chapters total. I really wanted to finish it by the end of 2010, but now I'm not so sure if that will happen. :(
