I've been writing like a mad woman for a while, but that was because the part of the story i was working on was one i'd been thinking about for a lot and which was very clear in my mind.
Now, I've essentially reached the building up towards the climax and then the eventual ending of the story. I estimate we have maybe 15-20k left to go. The ending is very much in sight
BUT. I can tell I'm about to enter another incubation period, as I've been writing so much. I need to recharge. So despite being so close to the ending, it seems like I'm going to stop writing for a while as i wait for the natural ebb and flow of inspiration to reach another peak.
I'm excited for it! I do want to keep going right now. But I can tell I don't have a good grasp on the individual scenes yet, and that means I have to step back and have a think before I keep going, otherwise the climax is going to feel weak.
#I know the plot of the scenes - but i dont have a good grasp on the emotions and interactions#does that make sense? I need to thread the needle#because the story is also a highly emotional one and i need that part to land as well#ill spend some time editing as i wait for the climax to really solidify in my mind#i dont even know whats holding me back. I can just tell things havent slotted into their correct space yet#theres still some stuff up in the air. Its like a few puzzle pieces that need to click into place
