First of all, ladies, let's celebrate ourselves! Happy International Women's Day!
The rest is routine. ;)

This is the place to tell us about your daily success (or the lack of it)!

May the magic be with us all!

Last night I tried to nudge the plot forward a bit. Wrote a paragraph, then tore it up. Rewrote the paragraph — I tentatively hope it might work this way. Now if I could only figure out how to nudge the plot further forward! It is so little left to be written, but it's like pulling teeth. *sigh*

Oh damn, being stuck like that is annoying. I hope you can get past that hurdle soon. Any way to skip this tricky spot and get back to it later?

Not really. It is the spot that prepares the finishing of the chapter; and the entire story, actually, as this is supposed to be the last chapter, save perhaps a short epilogue. It is basically filler stuff, but it has to make sense to reach the intended outcome.

Ouch. Yeah, I see. No way around wrangling this paragraph and scene into submission :(

On the bright side, you're so very close to being done!

Oh I know the feeling — good luck with it.

Thanks, I'll need it. The annoying part is, I only need to write a couple of pages to finish the story in its entirety, and these few paragraphs just refuse to come together in a sensible way.

I always find the end hard (if I'm writing something with actual plot, which doesn't happen all that often) because the storylines have to be wrapped up and all threads settled. I hope you get it all sorted out!

That sounds frustrating - good luck!

As frustrating as it must be, you're absolutely doing the right thing by rewriting it until it satisfies you!
