Plotting again
Today decided to take a break from writing pages and look at where the story has gone and needs to go. That has been helpful. I'm feeling more optimistic about this draft now. Though still have a lot more plot decisions to make before I go back into the draft. Will plot again tomorrow, probably. Unless I decide to have a day off.

I find it's important to remain optimistic about a draft (or even an outline), otherwise it becomes a real grind to get through. But at the same time, it doesn't need to work yet, being the first draft, and I can tie myself in knots trying to make it all work.
I've found it's about finding a good place to navigate towards - if I feel like I'm not going anywhere worthwhile, it's time to check the compass... But once I've got a direction to head in, it's best to push on and not get bogged down...
