What kind of writing do you do?

Eventually I realized that I had created a mishmash of barely related tangents. <br />I saw then that I would need to separate my story elements into chapters if I wanted to have any sense of organization. <br />If I may ask, how do you decide where to separate your chapters? Do you then add in catchy phrases authors rely on to heighten the tension between scenes?

Like you, I struggled to find the final thread to weave together my plot. For months I racked my brain about it. Finally, I decided to revisit it at a later date. About a week after this decision, the lightbulb came on. I then realized that the brain unconsciously works through our problems. Since then, I have quit worrying about inspiration. I've learned that my muse will eventually return from her coffee break. She works hard. I just need to be patient.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00501918398545296619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1424404256501615774.post-15248389639643116522012-01-05T10:39:45.673-08:002012-01-05T10:39:45.673-08:00I just love the moments when I'm inspired, esp...I just love the moments when I'm inspired, especially if those moments cause me to react or take action immediately.Peaches Ledwidgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13406881743264774589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1424404256501615774.post-25239013666599306812012-01-05T08:59:47.429-08:002012-01-05T08:59:47.429-08:00Thanks for the vote of confidence!
