Writer's Block

2/21/2018

You know, writer's block is supposed to be over once you type "the end." I mean, that's the deal, right? Well, now I'm rewriting early sections, so it's completely new stuff and, guess what... yeah, you read the title.

​I'm not sure if writer's block is even the proper term. I planned out The Paladin with a lot of sticky notes, a lot of plotting, and a lot of talking things out. Now I'm adding a new section, but I'm so impatient to get done with this edit that I'm not taking the proper time to map out scenes.

Don't get me wrong, I certainly wrote down a summary of what I want, but I haven't gone into the finer details like I did with the grand story. This has led to me writing a scenes, then rewriting it, then deleting it all, then banging my head against the desk over and over. Rinse, wash, repeat. That's not to say I haven't made progress, because I have, it's just annoying to watch a good stream of consciousness get interrupted by me either thinking, "eh... that could be better," or worse, "eh... that's a little wordy for my current word count."

So now I'm trying to reconcile my brain with my heart. I know I need to just write and press forward and worry about editing it later, but I'm already in the editing stage! I have editing on my mind! Gah!

No worries. Just another speed bump on the road to publishing. I will get this done. -insert finger guns-

​Don't forget to be awesome!
