My outlines for scholastic essays tended to be a list of quotes, with a word of my own thrown in here and there.
wanting to find out what happens is one of my few effective spurs to writing.
Hey, me too! But sometimes I do know what happens, and the question, "but how could that happen?" is more the one I'm writing to answer.
I've had other stories in the past eat my brain, even other fics. Sometimes I feel like it's happening every time I sit down to write. What's so frustrating about this one is just how long it is. I've been writing it for a year, and every time I sit down to it I get sucked in for 10,000, 20,000 words when I just want to finish a scene or two. I keep thinking, but how much longer could it be? And then it just keeps going.
