Serious obstacles in my way these days. Rewriting this novel is turning out to be a much bigger project than I anticipated. I keep encountering speed bumps. I’ll be rolling along just fine then suddenly, something is in the way, I slow down to a crawl, try to ease my way forward, feel it out, but then I get stuck, sometimes even bottoming out, and it is taking me forever plus a sizable self-induced kick in the rear to get going again. Ugh. So frustrating.
I’ll take a cue from a classic I’ve been reading to my daughter: I think I can, I think I can, I think I can…

I know you can. Commit to working on it for just ten minutes. The hardest part is getting started. Once you get back into a groove, you will forget to watch the time.
