So I'm... a little bit stuck. It's because I've got a plot that's murky in my head, and I've got a bunch of things that need to happen, but I'm not sure how to get from A to B. I could write a bunch of random scenes right now, but then I'd still be faced with the problem of connecting them. I think what I really need to do is write a detailed plotline, and also really detailed character profiles, and then I'll be better off. The problem is, with the November 31st deadline looming, I feel like whenever I write something that isn't a part of the final word count, I'm wasting time.
Anyway. I'm trying to remember that inspiration doesn't flow if you force it. I just need to relax, maybe forget about it for a while, grab some popcorn and watch Eragon on HBO. Yups.
I went to an abs class at the gym tonight, and was really disappointed. Not only was it not very challenging or varied (we did crunches, the plank pose, and... more crunches), the instructor was kind of flighty. She kept saying things like, "Ok, now we're done with that, so... let's turn over. Okay. Hm. Let's do some crunches."
*makes face*
It did make me feel kind of good, though, knowing that I was stronger than the grunting people there.
