It's Finally Happening!
Ring the bells! Sing 'Hallelujah!' Bounce on your toes! Jump on your bed!
Jason's story is finally happening!
I can't believe it myself. I have fought that turkey (and I mean it literally for him - YOU TURKEY, JASON!) and fought him, and wrote and deleted and wrote and deleted and tore my hair out. But now - it's working!
I had this moment of clarity where I looked at what I was writing and faced the fact that...this just isn't working. Am I going to have to shelve Jason's story for awhile and do something else instead? Definitely didn't want to do that, as I had the feeling if I shelved his story it would slip away and very possibly never be written. So I knew I had to keep going with it. But I wiped the pages clear I'd started (and started and started and restarted and - you get the picture) and thought - I have to start with something new for him, a different angle. So I did. And it worked! Not saying the story is flowing smoothly, but its progressing better than it had been.
Ah, Jason, how I love you - and hate you all at the same time!
