(BTW, most blocks occur for me because I've written something "not right". It's like my subconscious says, "No way, honey. This is the wrong path.) Then I take up writing on Book B. It's like a breath of fresh air--I'm excited to be with these characters again, back in this plot again, etc. Eventually I will hit a block in story B. By that time, my brain (what there is of it) has figured out what's wrong with Book A. Sometimes I help this along by re-reading what I've already got down on the page. It's so much easier to see the forest through the trees when I've been away from the story for a little while.(less)

Fall Comes to Paris

 
By Helen Currie Foster
Travel thoughts.
It’s fall in Paris. The rows of chestnuts flanking the Seine are turning golden-brown; gingko trees sport their distinctive yellow leaves, preparing to fling down, on one afternoon they keep secret, all their leaves at once.
Fall fashion? Long hair for women, slim tan trench coats at mid-calf, midi-length swishy skirts. Anyone can wear jeans and sneakers…
