Word Maze - what I'm learning about writing

The second season of Word Maze is all about writing fiction.

Pilar abandoned NaNoWriMo but is continuing with her story. Writing, struggling, reading (favourite mode of procrastination) and podcasting her journey.

I talk about that and also about finding the truth in your story, your characters and painfully, in your villain.

How much are you willing to go through for your story?

The blocks I'm coming across - to do with plot and characters, (what else!) and what I'm enjoying most. Plus, my NaNoWriMo word count - I'm falling behind... but there's still time to catch up!

Days 5 and 6 of NaNoWriMo:
How I realised my character was being totally reactive and what I did about her. Plus, reflections on the how the mind of superheroines work.
