#WritersCoffeeClub March 2: Does your overall goal differ from project to project?

The goal of each project is, "get it done." But each project has different challenges: voice, pacing, transitioning, character development, motifs, research, themes, etc. So yes, each one is different, but the methodology should be consistent even while developing that methodology.

I am an academic, so this is how I work. :)

#WritersCoffeeClub March 4: Share a recent experience where something just "clicked."

Realizing that my Funny One supporting character deeply wants to be a Sexy Hero. He doesn't get how loved he is for who he is.

#WritersCoffeeClub March 5: How do you make sure you don’t leave plot holes?

Lot of stewing. Some obsessing. I would love to say, "brooding," but that requires a level of sexy cool that I don't possess. [sigh]

Anxiety.

@orionkidder skill issue. I write and i still have anxiety!
@ratsnakegames Yeah, to be fair, "give up" does imply I don't have it any more. It's more like "keep at bay," but that didn't fit the question. :)
