You know that feeling you get when you’ve been writing for an hour or two, and you’re starting to lose focus? The words aren’t coming as quickly as you wish, yet you want to push ahead and finish that scene or chapter. When you write like this, you struggle against the inertia that develops as you tire, and your creativity may take the back seat as you strive to reach your goal.
