Unstuck!

I am delighted to report after my last blog post, that my theory worked!  I got through the part of the scene that was getting me stuck by focusing on what each character's need was, what each character was fighting for.  And this same thought just barreled me through the second part of that scene.  It's a great question to ask myself, every time I am trying to figure out what a character might say, "what does she want?" When what she wants is clear, what she does/says becomes very clear.  This has also barreled me through the next small section.  Onward!
