Re: Starting Struggles
*NaNo hugs*

Sounds like you already know all the best advice, but that doesn't always help. I got really fed up with the level of detail in the preps and almost scrapped the whole lot. Then I went back to the beginning and the few scenes I'd outlined before prep began and ran from there.

Use the prep, don't let the prep use you.

Never Give Up, Never Surrender.
