Nothing can bring your writing to a halt faster than a migraine. My son turned seven and got presents while his mommy got her second ever migraine. It lasted for several days and my writing and my children received far less attention than I would have liked.
I am back to my laptop and was happy with the rewriting I completed today. I have been trying to find the 'moment of truth' in my WIP. Several things happen to the protagonist but not one of them directly brought her to that decision making process. I discovered it today and it really brings that defining moment into the story.
I probably have done the process backwards, I realize now that I should have established the moment of truth ahead of time but this is a learning process.
If anybody has any tips on the process they use to write I am open for advice. I know some people use an outline, others just write. I just started writing and plotted as I went. I have noticed a little inconsistency with plot lines and time lines. Maybe an outline would help.

I got my first migraine when I was 27 and that was 11 years and at least 8 migraines ago. I hope it's not the same for you! I cannot stand outlines, however, I have learned that I cannot write well without them.
