Jess waved her hand. "Go on, do whatever you were doing. Pretend I’m not here.”

Lachlan made a sound suspiciously like a grunt. “Then you’d better close your coat.”

She jammed the edges together, her cheeks warming at the cleavage she'd been showing, and quickly changed the subject. "The bruises. Did I do those?" She walked up to him, taking a closer look at the ugly purple bruises on his shoulde... read more »

Hi, Cassie! Maybe you haven't gotten enough of the structure down. I'm new to series writing myself after having written 18 stand-alone books, and it's a different animal. You may be at the wrong beginning, too. Play with ideas and start at different points just for fun. And different characters. Something's stuck because it isn't right. Stories do change from the synopsis. I write from mine, but you should see all the scribbles where things have changed or been deleted or happened earlier than I'd planned. It's just a rough outline to help you move the story along and keep it on track. Don't sweat it.

A lot of writers get stuck in the middle, so hey, you're getting your stuckness out of the way in the beginning. :) Once you get past the hump, you'll be just fine. Start with action, too, something exciting or interesting going on right from the get-go. Don't set up the story or the character or the scene at the outset.

Good luck!
Jaime


Cassie Thank you for friending me! I need your help! I'm trying to write a book/series, and every time I try I get stuck at the begining. Then when I try to write the book, my story changes. Do you have any advice for me?
