So, I don't tend to worry very much about ironing out questions in the plot as those things seem to resolve themselves pretty easily. If I'm not in a writing mood, I might write some notes down to clarify finer details. This helps for future reference.

Usually, however, I just talk myself into writing two pages. This is a mental trick I use to get over the hump of just sitting down and starting to write. So, I tell myself I'm just going to write two pages and I tell myself anyone on the planet can write two pages.

The thing is, by the time I've written two pages, I'm in rhythm and I'm most likely going to write more than that. The day I finished the manuscript for "Sunday Night" I wrote 23 pages because I was on such a tremendous roll - and that started with just telling myself to write two pages.

On the other hand, if I only write two pages on any given day, then I'm not beating myself up about it. I wrote two pages and I met my goal - but on most days, I far exceed that, and I feel really good about my progress. So, it's really a very simple, but effective, mental trick I use.(less)

Bounce your ideas off of other people and take feedback from others seriously. Find some initial readers you can trust and listen to them, but determine for yourself if you should follow the advice you hear based on what you know you're trying to say. Edit your work meticulously (read it out loud if you have to so you can hear what it sounds like). Finally, submit your polished work to as many agents/publishers as you can until you hear a "yes." If you exhaust that list without an acceptance, self publish and move on to the next idea. Above all, keep trying!(less)

Prescient, yet, at some points, wildly optimistic despite being so correct about the political trends towards autocracy and the shifting demographics in the United States.
