If I reach the point where I am unable to continue with a particular plot or scene, I simply just put it aside until I solve my character's problem (could be days or months). In the meantime I turn my efforts to one of the other stories I have on the go....I never find myself short of an idea and never stop writing!

Originally to simply come up with something more enjoyable than what I had been reading. These days, I am unable to stop my mind from thinking, and I enjoy the satisfaction of knowing I can turn a word or a phrase into something worthwhile almost daily. My high school English teacher would be so surprised!

I am presently enjoying a prolific period of creating, and have been able to add over 10,000 words to my latest crime/suspense manuscript in the past week :)
