"So," he says at length, tell me about this play. Emma's play." He laughs a little at the name.For those of you who are thinking "isn't the entire novel called Emma's Play?" : technically yes, but there is also a play that the main character wrote with the same title... And it's quite central to the book... But I don't know what this very important play is about. (better explanation here?) I don't know whether I should thank the above mentioned character or resume being upset at him.
"What do you want to know about it?"
"Well what is it about?"
She thinks about this. "I can't tell you because the author doesn't know. -.-" "

My characters piss me off
I'm being quite productive with my book... As productive as possible given the months of writers block. The plot is moving along quite nicely until one of my characters (you know who you are >.<) decides to completely annoy me to my wits' end. And it always seems to be him that ends up angering me too.

Don't worry they'll let you know when it's time... Though really shouldn't the character have said.

Whenever I get stuck, where my writing just doesn't want to go anywhere, I lather myself in brainstorming and allow myself to fall in love with my idea and get sparks of inspiration again. Otherwise I keep pushing for something that won't go anywhere and get aggravated beyond consolation.
