How do you get back to a manuscript that got stuck at some point?

T…moreI got stuck on To hide from Death III (3rd in the series) not because of writer's block but because I had things come up that I had to take care of. That in turn lead to writer's block because I had walked away for a few months. I had to skim my previous books to get in the gist of the flow I had going originally and to get me back in the flow of the way I wanted things to go. As I was writing, I became tired (after all that pre-reading I couldn't help it) I got stuck. I walked out of the house and went for a walk. I took my older horse, Honey out for a ride grabbed a Coke and set back to work. This didn't help, I was in a mood where i didn't want to sit down and write. Then i dropped a note to some of my friends and asked them to please light a fire under my butt to get some work done. They started riding me hard about wanting the third book and it actually worked. I began to feel like I was letting them down and in doing that i was letting myself down. So i watched a good horror flick and the next day I read my third book from the beginning, got back into my flow and began writing again. I was supposed to have had that book done three months earlier LoL, but these things happen. You have to do what inspires you to pick up from where you were stuck. Sometimes it's as easy as a walk or a ride and sometimes it's as easy as family game night. Just find what inspires you to keep going with your books, even if you have to look outside your genre for a break.(less)

Hi Theresa. How do you cope with getting ideas for your storyline out of sequence....then fitting them in? I tie myself up in knots with this.....

I sometimes write out of order (I usually write in order) but sometimes you can't help writing out of order especially when someone says something that triggers off an idea or you see something, or dream something...When I do this, I print out my out of orders and keep them in a folder marked "Out of Order" and the title, and on the inside cover I write a brief description of what that chapter contains. Then when I am writing my books I read over my out of order files and the notes on the inside covers. This tells me if this is something I can use while I am in the middle of writing and need to piece together my work. It is a lot easier when you do it like this I think. Of course I keep them in my computer files so as I'm writing i do not have to set that aside, I just pick up my folders and look on the inside and when I find which one works, I add that file to what I'm working on and then place a sticky note on it marked "used" so I know I don't have to read through that file again and put that file away. It sounds complicated, but it really works. I hope it helps you too :)(less)

Can You Spot a Victim

I have received so many emails on domestic violence concerning how you can spot a victim of domestic violence.
The most obvious answer I receive when speaking publicly and asking the audience this question is the bruises. Although that is a sure telltale sign it is not the only one.
Some victims don't wear bruises where they can be easily seen. They have bruises that can easily be covered by clothin Read more of this blog post »
