That’s quite a huge question while working on a novel. Not just any novel either. This is a sequel to my first novel. So I need to follow up that story, keep the characters consistent or growing.

I get into the story…then find myself at a point where I am not sure what is happening next, or how events proceed. Or in my current case, how do I get from what I have written to where I expect the scene to get to?

I’m at that point right now. I know what I want in the scene, but I need to get from where I have written so far to that point. It’s like it’s on the tip of my tongue, but I can’t quite say the word. It will come to me. I just have to relax. Rest. Exercise. Ride the motorcycle, and survive difficult times at work.

This story will come out.
